Under a recent change, rmail-delete-forward takes an optional repeat
count.  If not specified, the count defaults to nil, giving an error.
This function is called with no arguments in several places including
rmail-output (if rmail-delete-after-output is set).


emacs -Q
M-X rmail
set rmail-delete-after-output to t
press "o"
Give output filename
Get error: Wrong type argument: number-or-marker-p, nil
