It isn't.  Unfortunately, that code is reached after fmt_compile()
is called, so it has no effect on the fmt_scan().

The same thing can happen with the -to, -cc, -from, and -subject
switches:  if the format file doesn't contain the respective
component, the switch will be silently ignored.  It can happen with
comp, dist, forw, and repl, for those switches that each program
supports.

I was thinking of documenting it.  But maybe the man pages suggest
it already, by the way they refer to the default message templates
and default values?
