After the trouble we went through to get mail-yank-hooks
standardized, if VM went off and started using another variable
Barry Warsaw would kill me. :-)

I am surprised that mail-yank-hoos has a non-nil default value in
v19 of Emacs.  RMS mentioned that mailers should (defvar
mail-yank-hooks nil) to be safe, which suggested to me that it
wasn't even going to be defined by Emacs itself.  Live and learn.
I'll have to make a note in the manual about the user needing to
set mail-yank-hooks explicitly to nil to get VM's default
behavior.
