Actually, I see point in both... I'd think you'd want to know if a patch
worked against the CVS checkout it was written against.

Regardless, it's unlikely that the patch was tested against all of the platforms available on the build farm. If it fails on some of the build|patch farm animals, or if it fails due to bitrot, the point is it fails: whatever version the patch was generated against is pretty much moot: the patch needs to be fixed. (And isn't the version number included in the patch if generated as a diff anyway?)
