Sorry, I do not get what you mean:

Do you mean that I should test and apply renaming patch without
removing 'util.ht'? I really do not like this -- that would mean
patching both copies or leaving a potential bug.

So you want something like:
: We messed up. We hade the rule:
:

: We should not try to install two source files into single location,
