Guess I've been reading too much spam. It wore off on me.

Sorry about this. Arnd already explained this to me, and I did catch
it with V9. This time I forgot.

I would like to get to the bottom of this. Here is what I did:

   1. Saved your patch to disk in mbox format using Mutt.
   2. git am
   3. ... rebase, rebase, rebase, ...
   4. git format-patch [options] 1234..abcd
   5. Edit cover letter
   6. for x in 00*; do mutt -H $x; done

Git format-patch places the "From: John Stultz <john.stultz@...aro.org>"
line with the other mail headers, and so I guess mutt just faithfully
preserves this.

I don't like having to remember to fix this manually. There must be a
better way...

Sorry,
Richard
