This is correct behavior. --mail-spool argument has nothing to do with
mailbox_name variable. It specifies the mailspool url, nothing more.
If you did `display mu_path_maildir', gdb would have displayed
$5 = "pop3://localhost", as is intended.

I see now. Mailbox_create_default should be a bit more
intelligent about urls. Now it simply appends username to the end
of the url, no matter what the protocol is. I'll fix it.
