I've pushed out an update to

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/quilttools.git

which contains a few other things I was sitting on for a while.

The mailbox parser is now manual and tries for work around that
formatting nonsense with some sloppy heuristics which should be good
enough for kernel development. Having a valid unixfrom line in the
mail body of a patch is very unlikely :)

Thanks,
