Good. Then you should have compiled userland as well and forgotten about
the patching process, since you already had the patch as part of
-stable.

So you moved your source back to -release and the patch applied. Moving
back to -release sources on a -stable system isn't a good idea.

This is not too surprising.

I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish. If you just want to be up
to date, then EITHER run -stable OR apply errata patches. You get the
errata patches (and more) as part of -stable.

If you're trying to test the patching process then install a -release
system, install -release source, and then patch and build.
