Subject: 29.0.60; [PATCH] MH-E breaks with nmh 1.8
Date: Thu, 19 Jan 2023 17:14:37 -0800

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

nmh 1.8 has not been released yet, but the first release candidate is
out.  I haven't had time to test it yet, but a user has reported that
the mh-version command breaks with it.  That is, mh-version is only able
to report a few things before erroring out on a nil value where a string
was expected.

The attached patch fixes the problem and works on older nmh releases as
well as 1.8.  Is it okay for emacs-29? 

thanks,
mike
