Just noting progress before I wander off again.

- Have procmail rules to pass patches to roundup mailgw using the patch class
(-C patch)
- Have a fake mailbox to test with
- Procmail complaining about extraneous flags and something else, but seems to
work (my local set of recipes)

Passing the attached mailbox through the roundup mail gateway is problematic
- it works if I explicitly put [patch] in the subject line
- it works (I think) if I pass in -C msg (ie. it creates a new message), but
then again, it also creates a new issue
- if I pass -C patch to roundup-mailgw, I get an email from mailgw, asking the
roundup admin to "fix the incorrect class specified as: patch".  I worked around
this issue by patching roundup (will attach), but now...
- if I pass -C patch to the patched roundup-mailgw, it just goes ahead and
creates a new issue, not a new patch (keep in mind that it clearly knows how to
create a new patch, because it can do so if you explicitly say 'patch' in the
subject line)

Another modification to the mailgw may be in order.  Hopefully it won't be too
involved.
