It seems you need to use "rmail-show-message-maybe" now.

I find it ridiculous the number of gratuitous changes that seem to
have accompanied the change in Rmail's storage format.

I have no idea what the hell the difference between the -maybe and
sans-maybe versions of this function are (anyone?), but I suggest we
rename "rmail-show-message-maybe" to "rmail-show-message", and call
the other one "rmail-show-message-1" or something.
