Already-applied patches in 'origin' are automatically reversed |

Currently, if a patch that we carry in Guix is taken upstream, and then
we update the package, Guix will automatically reverse the patch without
error.
This behavior delayed my xorg-update work for several hours today (I was
stumped and took a break), and I worry that patches that aren't needed
for successful compilation (e.g. security fixes) could be automatically
undone without anyone noticing.
Perhaps the solution is to pass --force (not --batch) to 'patch'.
What do you think?
Mark
