So I think that happened because you did not change the subject line to a new, 
fresh one, that indicates it's a patch intended to be applied.

Patches sent inside existing discussions, under the same subject, tend to be 
test-only or discussion-only patches, to be submitted for real, in 95% of the 
cases.
