This will teach applymbox the index base safety, but it shows
that the division between applymbox and applypatch makes things
less efficient than how git-am can do the same.

Hey, I'd happily use git-am too..

If you want to deprecare git-applymbox, why don't you just make it an 
alias for git-am, potentially doing the defaults and command line argument 
conversion?

I'd rather not.

The whole reason I did not _enhance_ git-applymbox but wrote a
separate git-am was because I found git-applymbox's command line
parameter quite insane and felt that supporting it at the same
time doing a saner command line parameter was too much kludge.

Heh. I'll try to make my alias be

	alias dotest='git-am --utf8'

and see what happens ;)
