Removed the 'patch' tag as there's no patch fixing the actual bug, just
a patch showing how the bug happens.

First we'd need a fixed version of splitpatch in a development Ubuntu
version. http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/splitpatch shows that
there's a newer git snapshot in newer Ubuntus, although even that does
not include the 2014 changes.

When/if the splitpatch would be fixed in a development Ubuntu version
and a patch fixing this single issue found, the next step would be to
update this bug according to
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates to prepare backporting the
fix to 14.04.

But first, it would be worth testing whether the
0.0+20131223+gitb13d810-1 version already fixes the issue, it's 6 months
newer than the version in 14.04. The
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/splitpatch_0.0%2B20131223%2Bgitb13d810-1_all.deb
package probably works just fine on 14.04 too since there are no
dependency changes.
