Oh, I see - you sent a meta-cover letter (the one I replied to in this
subthread), and then a patch series including a cover letter (the real
0/7, then 1/7 and friends in-reply-to the 0/7) as a child of the
meta-cover. It's still a bit awkward for tools that expect the 0/7 as
the start of the thread, and part of my confusion was caused by
out-of-order mail delivery due to the nongnu.org mail server still
recovering from its mail delays.
