Be careful when you edit format-patch output.  It seems that
diff-mode tends to mistake the trailing "signature separator" at
the end as if it is a removal of a line from the preimage, and
editing the last hunk ends up miscalculating the number of lines
in it.  It might have been fixed in the latest version but I was
burned by it number of times.
Would you be able to prepare an example and submit it using
M-x report-emacs-bug RET (probably using an attachment)?

Emacs 22.2 is likely to come out in a few months mainly as a bug fix,
incremental change and maintenance release to 22.1, and this would be
very much the kind of bug that warrants getting fixed, in particular
since it appears likely that Emacs 22.2 will come with git support in
VC.

If there is a good test case known to fail in your Emacs version, it
would be quite easy to verify that it is or gets fixed in 22.2

Thanks,
