The poor behaviour is just a side effect of the way that queries are
composed to implement the filter functionality. Does the attached patch
help?

It's not clear to me that this is broken.
notmuch-extract-patch seems to be properly extracting patches from the
messages that match the query.
If the current `notmuch-show' buffer query doesn't match the entire
thread, why should `notmuch-extract-thread-patches' be expected to apply
patches from the whole thread?

I can't explain, you would not understand. This is not how I am.
