Oh, I see!

In this case, I'm not eager to work around this issue in notmuch -- this
would only complicate the local code, and yet would be redundand in some
months.  (Your mileage may vary.)  That is, we already do rely on the
GMIME library for this parsing (etc.), so that's the place where this
issue needs to be fixed (and has been).  Hopefully, after the imminent
Debian release, the version of the library will be updated, or someone
(we, I guess) will propose backporting this patch, and get it accepted.
(Which may be non-trivial, as that wasn't a simple patch, but instead
sort of a parser re-write, as I understood it.)

Indeed.  :-)

PS: Matthieu, interesting how peoples' (that is, our) paths cross again.
