It seems that the testbot's generation of patch.diff failed, as it somehow managed to incorporate parts of my reply email into the file, corrupting it.
I think you got incredibly unlucky. My understanding is that: 1. The TestBot received your reply to part 1 before it received part 2. 2. It failed to recognize that the HTML attachment was actually HTML. 3. The plain text for that attachment looked like a patch. 4. Thus the TestBot replaced part 1 with the updated patch.
I think 2 and 4 are bugs but none of this would have been an issue without the unfortunate email reordering in 1.
I created a bug to track the issue: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47042
