Thanks for spotting.
I do not think you have to worry about any bug in Git-the-program
with this merge. If you try to reproduce the merge yourself (which
by the way is easy to do, with "M=4af9a7d344 && git checkout $M^ &&
git merge $M^2"), you'll see that quite a lot of changes made to
"builtin/apply.c" had to be hand-ported to the corresponding lines
that are now in "apply.c" at the top-level, because in the meantime
13b5af22 ("apply: move libified code from builtin/apply.c to
apply.{c,h}", 2016-04-22) moved things around while the merged side
branch has been cooking.
It is very likely that manual killing and yanking in Emacs
introduced the screw-up.
