REL8_2_0 is a tag, not a branch, and should correspond *exactly* to the
contents of the 8.2.0 tarball. The REL8_2_STABLE branch by now contains
a number of bug fixes, but that would only cause a patch failure if the
patch were trying to tweak one of the code sections changed for bug
fixing, which seems a tad unlikely.

Yeah, this is all pretty meaningless without seeing the rejects.
