Last time I checked it disallowed my as 5 depended on 4 which depended
on 3 which depended on 2 which depended on 1 as all changed x.hs:

Fri Apr 22 02:30:03 CEST 2011  Maciej Piechotka <uzytkownik2 at gmail.com>
  * Y feature
Shall I amend this patch? [yN...], or ? for more options: n

Skipping depended-upon patch:
Fri Apr 22 02:29:27 CEST 2011  Maciej Piechotka <uzytkownik2 at gmail.com>
  * Feature X
Cancelling amend since no patch was selected.
