Thanks for finding the bug.

The patch is not the best way to fix the bug since it includes
a behavior that is inconsistent with other resources.  I.e.  If
-rcfile is specified, the M2H_RCFILE envariable should not be
used.

What follows is probably better and applies to mhinit.pl
(patch untested):
