I looked at this and just sent a question to Jani
  id:"87k42momyi.fsf at awakening.csail.mit.edu"
If the answer is that it's okay, then consider my eyes one more pair.

Alternatively, can we just require GMime 2.6.7 by applying
  id:"1331515786-485-1-git-send-email-david at tethera.net"
instead of
  id:"1331385931-1610-1-git-send-email-david at tethera.net"
and
  id:"1329852935-3019-1-git-send-email-schnouki at schnouki.net"
?

The worst-case scenario with applying this patch is that notmuch will
verbosely fail to show a message where it would otherwise crash, so
I'd go for it.

(See my comment about 2.6.7 above.)

I approve this patch.
