Makes sense.

I am not a quilt user, but the Internet finds pages like
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/quilt-dev/2009-12/msg00021.html
and http://www.man-online.org/page/1-quilt/, both of which tell me
that QUILT_SERIES is an environment variable that has established
meaning, and the new use in this patch is consistent with the
established practice.

Thanks, will apply.
