Yes, it's possible that a patch still applies in this case, but not 'cleanly'.
Here's the difference for moor:

Before `make update-patches`:

	Hmm...  Looks like a unified diff to me...
	The text leading up to this was:
	--------------------------
	|Index: internal/reader/reader_test.go
	|--- internal/reader/reader_test.go.orig
	|+++ internal/reader/reader_test.go
	--------------------------
	Patching file internal/reader/reader_test.go using Plan A...
	Hunk #1 succeeded at 21 (offset 2 lines).

After `make update-patches`:

	Hmm...  Looks like a unified diff to me...
	The text leading up to this was:
	--------------------------
	|Index: internal/reader/reader_test.go
	|--- internal/reader/reader_test.go.orig
	|+++ internal/reader/reader_test.go
	--------------------------
	Patching file internal/reader/reader_test.go using Plan A...
	Hunk #1 succeeded at 21.

The telltale is "(offset 2 lines)". Personally I just made it a habit
to always run `make update-patches` instead of scanning through those
lines, though.
