Thanks Dominik. My svn client did not show those .svnpatch.rej files. They are not checked in. They are part of my local install. I have removed them locally now.
While it isn't ideal to have them in the source distribution, I don't think they will cause much harm. In the announcement emails, I'll make sure to highlight the fact that we don't have binary zip/tar.gz any more. I have updated https://poi.apache.org/download.html (Binary Artifacts section) to provide a URL for traversing Maven jars.
