Oh, it's trivial.  The problem with 238bf4cb09 was simply that the
function (defun) `notmuch-bbdb/snarf-headers' was missing a closing
paren.  A visible symptom of this was that the *next* defun after it,
`notmuch-bbdb/snarf-from', was spuriously indented inward.  If anyone
had tried reindenting further, all the code below it would also have
indented inward, making the problem more obvious.

So the solution is to:

  1) Re-apply the 238bf4cb09 patch

  2) Add a parenthesis to the end of `notmuch-bbdb/snarf-headers',
     such that the line "(bbdb-update-records addrs t t))" becomes
     "(bbdb-update-records addrs t t)))"

  3) Unindent the function `notmuch-bbdb/snarf-from' immediately below
     there, which just means pulling each line leftward two spaces

  4) Commit, push, profit :-).

The above recipe is, of course, equivalent to re-applying the 238bf4cb09
patch, then applying my patch (4c74ad313f608f0834961c63c70d1f811ef103b7)
on top of it.  I'm not sure what the gitmost way to do that is, but if
you want I can simply submit a combined change whose commit message
makes clear what's going on.
