Actually, the original patch used '!'.  It didn't carry a Signed-off-by 
and when it was reposted with a SoB, this was changed to '~'.  There was 
no indication though that the contents of the patch was different.

Moral of the story is, when you make a change to the patch, add a (v2) 
and state in the commit message what change was made.

Thanks for catching this.
