Having that file as an exception would make things too complicated. 
Make change, add changelog, post patch :-)

(bites tongue :-)

My reason for asking this favour is that mailers (e.g., mozilla) refuses 
to display application/octet-stream attachments as inline text (kind of 
understandable - the content is not printable).  That makes reviewing 
anything you post that bit harder.  To comment, I've got to unpack the 
mail and then inspect separate files.  If, instead the attachment could 
be made some sort of printable type (how about e-mailing me a diff 
called diff.txt?), it will be displayed in-line and people will be able 
to quickly/efficiently cut/paste any reply.

enjoy,
Andrew
