 wp_dropdown_categories. In the use case that led to me reporting this I'm
 amending the depth parameter so that the end result is that the dropdown
 list only contains top-level items.

 Slightly bad wording on my part, the issue is that with your patch the
 only value eventually passed to wp_dropdown_categories() is $taxonomy
 (after filtering) since the first value passed to apply_filters() is the
 one being filtered. You need to be passing the entire arguments array as
 the first parameter. Also please make patches relative to the root
 directory.
