Really?

quilt pop should not be patching anything. It should be
restoring the original file (inode object) from the .pc/
directory, by manipulation of hard links.

When you pop that patch off, the behavior I would expect that you
should have the original file object, with the same modification
timestamp and inode number.

This could be some regression from "how it is supposed to work".
