OK, but I basically have to apply it by hand then.  I guess the best I
could do would be to revert the original patch but save a copy, apply
your patch to the patch, and then apply that patch.  Anyway it makes
things much more laborious.

Either way is fine, but an incremental patch is probably better
(especially because it makes the changes easiest to see).  And
especially in this case, where the original buggy patch was already
upstream, an incremental patch is definitely best.
