OK, here it is with the test and an amended commit message. You could
almost do an [e]dit on this and delete the "deleted" line, but you have
no way of fixing up the "+++ /dev/null" line. For now, we have
disabled [e]dit entirely for non-content hunks, so at least you cannot
get yourself into trouble creating a broken patch. :)

Thanks.
