I suspect you'd get exactly the same issues with patches in the case I'm 
referring to.

I fail to see how the same patch could apply to two diverged codebases.
Sure you'll get a conflict, exactly what the merge will produce (indeed 
merging is not more than applying patches, or am I wrong?).

I practiced too much quilt and other manual patch stacks for my mental 
health, I'm happy with VCS and especially git :-)
