It sounds like you're applying expected-anysize on top of the regular anysize patch. But I don't think that is intended. If we inspect the two patches, we can see that the two lines from 'expected' are included in the normal patch - hence the "previously applied" error you have seen. Applying expected-anysize directly to 0.9 or even the current master behaves as described for me.
