Could you explain the difference between the two patches?

In general I think we should keep providing detailed explanations in the
commit log (and possibly in the bug tracker) when such problems occur.

The former version of the patch can be found at
<https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org/file/b182c6b9e1d09e601bac0b703cc5f8b159ebbc3a.patch/sha256/17j45vyyr071ka3nckj2gycgyyv1j08fyrxw89jfdq2442nzrsiy>
(I’m attaching it here.)

TIA,
Ludo’.
