In my original review of this patch I asked if this issue was more generic than just file externals?

What happens with switched files?

(Did I miss an earlier answer?)

My guess would be that it is the being switched that defines the behavior here, not being external.

And in that case a follow up patch would be necessary to handle the real problem.
