message-yank-original is broken

[Miles Bader]

`message-yank-original' has suddenly started prefixing cited text with
three spaces instead of "> " as it used to (1-2 days ago).  This is broken.

Thanks,

-Miles

I guess you've checked out Emacs at 2009-11-19 16:47 +0000
(i.e., 2009-11-20 01:47 +0900).

cvs log -N emacs/lisp/gnus/message.el
revision 1.174

(message-signature-file, message-default-headers): For GNU Emacs, set
default values from the corresponding mail-* variables.

* mail/sendmail.el (mail-yank-prefix): Change default to "> ".


Before changing sendmail.el, `mail-yank-prefix' was nil, and:

(defun message-indent-citation (&optional start end yank-only)
[...]
  ;; Do the indentation.
  (if (null message-yank-prefix)
      (indent-rigidly start (or end (mark t)) message-indentation-spaces)
