I believe you are wrong about the last part.
I believe unpatching is done _after_ cleaning.
If interrupted during build (which often happens when tuning the build
routines) then all sorts of odd things can occur, but with dpkg-source
format "3.0 (quit)" patches are applied _before_ invoking any rules, and
thus should re unapplied _after_ cleanup.

You are absolutely right. My fingers are just programmed to hit "L" in
Mutt when targeting a list - not "G" which somewhat counterintuitively
is the appropriate action when commenting on commit messages.
