Sounds like two new bugs from the mailinfo series we added last
week, primarily 87ab7992 and f0658cf2.  I suspect mailinfo
thinks there is an empty patch (which may be one bug), and the
change to applymbox tries to catch it, but there is no
corresponding stop_here shell function defined as in git-am and
barfs (which would be another bug).

A fix for the latter bug would be the attached, and that would
expose the former bug-suspect which may indicate you indeed have
a non-patch in your mailbox (in which case there is no bug) or
the updated mailinfo is misidentifying something as a non-patch
(which would be a bug).
