Technically, it should be "made", as these changes have already been
pushed to master.  I covered this previously, but perhaps it wasn't
clear.

The default components files now add an appropriate From: header
to all drafts (for dist it's Resent-From).  If you have your own
components files then you'll need to change them.  There is a new
mh-format function (%(localmbox)) that you can use to specify the
local mailbox address.  By default this is retrieved from the system
via the "normal" way (GECOS, username, hostname or localname:), but
you can override this in your .mh_profile.

These changes were made a little while ago; the new stuff is the
rejection of drafts without From: headers in them.
