Bug in gnus pop3-munge-message-separator

[no-spam@cua.dk (Kim F. Storm)]

For some time, gnus (from emacs CVS) wasn't able to receive mail
from one of my mail accounts (it barfs about nil is not a string).

I tracked this down to messages with an empty Date: header.

The following patch fixes this.  I don't know if this is the proper
way to fix it, but at least it works...
