Yes, but can you svk patch --cat a patch you have created in that depot?

I guess not. I tried it, but still get errors trying to work with the
patch I've made:

$ svk patch --cat openpty-again --depot /axiom/
Target not local nor mirrored, unable to view patch.

I just want the svk patch commands to work. Maybe it's some bug in the
Mac OS X version of svk I'm using. The only thing related I can see on
google is:
