This might be more  a pkg thing, but has anyone gotten
the NetBSD nmh package to work with mh-e?  

The NetBSD integration moves mhl and inc and the nmh config files
around. Even native nmh doens't quite match how mh-e uses mh,
but with  the NetBSD integrated nmh, the recommended workaround
doesn't work, at least for me. Has anyone gotten it to work?

Failing that, are the patches for mh 6.8.3 still around anywhere?
