Yeah, sorry about that.  I discovered that after 1.4 was released.
It's fixed in the current version and will be fixed in 1.5.  It
turned out that was broken for a while, but since not that many
people use the current source code from the revision control tree
it wasn't noticed (I don't use dist very much myself ... I only
noticed when I upgraded my wife's copy of nmh and she started
complaining about it).  If you're up for patching it yourself the
revision where it was fixed is here:

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/nmh.git/commit/?id=01943d78230ead5bcc568e8a87d3cdbaac1f5584

We actually resurrected the old nmh test suite and integrated it
into Automake, so now a lot of things automatically get checked.
Although it occurs to me that dist is NOT currently in the test
suite; I should put it in there.
