    I thought we considered the RCS/CVS keywords a pest because they tend to 
    generate gratuitous changes like the one above.  Is it possible to get 
    rid of them (I thought we did that for all bundled packages)?

I try to discourage them, but have not been rigidly strict about it.
They cause hassle when people edit the files in their own repositories
and then send changes to us.  In the case of MH-E, if the editing is
only done in our repository now, maybe they don't do any harm.
