I'm not sure if there exists a case where the following change breaks
a working configuration:

	* nnir.el (nnir-read-server-parm): Do not unconditionally fall back to
	global variables if nnir-mail-backend is nil.

But I guess it is save to backport the rest of my changes. They
probably fix some long-time outstanding bugs:

<news:87vh76gvtv.fsf@localhost.localnet>
<news:vxkherl42jv.fsf@cinnamon.vanillaknot.com>

Btw, I just realise that the ChangeLog entry is supposed to read
"...if the current method doesn't match nnir-mail-backend and doesn't
have a matching parameter".  Is it legal to modify the ChangeLog file
afterwards? And if, should one also modify the CVS log message (using
the "cvs admin" command)?
