It means that your series should *work* at each point of the series. Here, if we apply patches 1 and 2 of your series, but leave patches 3 and 4 unapplied, the build will break, because patch 2 has changed the version of elfutils being used, but changes of patch 3 are not present, so the patches of elfutils will not apply. Do the test yourself: apply just your patches 1 and 2, and test the build of elfutils.
