With the exception of trivial merge conflicts, in general I like to avoid 
changing the body of the patches when I apply them; there are always going to 
be exceptions, but when possible I try to avoid it.  I consider tweaking the 
patch subject lines pretty trivial, especially in the last case where the 
subject line had become wrong/invalid due to changes in the patch itself.
