Sorry about all the replies to my own mail.

I checked out the master branch on Oct 24 and it breaks right away.

git checkout master@{oct.24}

and running uncompiled sources creates attachment directories with a
newline at the end.  It's been fixed since then.

I'll go and move all my attachments which are in directories with
embedded newlines to the correct location and all should be well for me
at that point.

Other users might want to check if they have attachments in broken
directories too.
