The addition of rint() (by Peter Schneider-Kamp; I forgot to mention
...
that before) in the previous patch has one problem; rint() is not in
the C math library on all platforms (e.g. not for VC++). Make it
conditional on HAVE_RINT.

The intent is that this diff adds a link to the rfc822 module doc and
an index reference to this module under the rfc822 heading.

Added link to the MIME FAQ, so people can more easily get more
information about the subject of the module.

Eric Raymond:
...
(1) Added and documented the capability for shlex to handle
lexical-level inclusion and a stack of input sources. Also, the input
stream member is now documented, and the constructor takes an optional
source-filename. The class provides facilities to generate error
messages that track file and line number.
(2) Add a convenience function to generate C-compiler style error
leaders.
