I was afraid of that: you've got some views created with the patch
installed and some with it not installed.

It should be possible to manually correct the bogus entries. Basically
what the patch does is add a field to the QUERY structure, whose name I
forget but comparing working and non-working ev_action strings should
expose it. (It's probably near the end of the string.) If you delete
the field (text ":fieldname <> ") from the non-working ev_action strings
you should be able to get to a state where all the views will dump in a
non-hier build.
