If someone resubmits the patch, it will be reviewed and applied if 
appropriate.

I couldn't find the referenced patch (not sure which thread it's a part 
of).  In general, I don't like applying patches that are deep within a 
thread because it's hard to determine whether there was an updated patch 
somewhere else in the thread and it's even more difficult to identify 
which messages in the thread may contain a patch.

Top-level postings with a clear indication of which version of the patch 
(v2, v3, v4, etc.) and an indication of whether it's a resubmission (via 
[RESEND]) makes it much easier to find the right patch to apply.
