Oh, I hope that's a false alarm, I based my repositories on this

It worked OK for me and it already imported the 1.26841 changeset this
morning. The 1.26831 applied cleanly for me.

First of all, the 1.26 consistent.c revision that fails in your case
corresponds to the global BKCVS revision 1.26831 (ChangeSet,v) - after
Linux 2.6.11-rc5. The "+ off" change was added to consistent.c in the
local revision 1.25 which corresponds to the global revision 1.26789 -
after 2.6.11-rc4.

Both of the above are in my repository as patch-4088 and patch-4046
respectively (my repository tracks the BKCVS one since Linux 2.6.9).

Can you show me the first kernel version when you started tracking
BKCVS, the initial ChangeSet,v revision you put in ,bkcvs-last-rev and
a "cat-log" of "base-0" in your repository?

I think you know this but just in case - if you started with
2.6.11-rc5 the initial -rc5 patch released by Torvalds was broken, it
was reverting all the changes up to 2.6.10.
