[pkg-fetchmail-maint] Bug#603861: Further information

The bug was caused by a bogus downstream patch that got imported from Ubuntu,
01_fetchmailconf.patch, that contained a bogus workaround for a different bug.
This should never have made it into the package.

Note that 01_fetchmailconf.patch and 03_fetchmailconf_python2.6.patch (as of
svn://svn.debian.org/pkg-fetchmail/trunk rev 545) are both bogus and should be
removed.  If any issues remain, then either automake or python are broken.

Corresponding downstream Bugs in Ubuntu are:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fetchmail/+bug/669066
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fetchmail/+bug/684228

But it is not to be expected that Ubuntu will see to those in the near future.
