+\r
+Before patch:\r
+\r
+       0:~/src/notmuch:(master)$ make\r
+       Use "make V=1" to see the verbose compile lines.\r
+         CC    notmuch-new.o\r
+         CXX   notmuch\r
+\r
+After patch:\r
+\r
+       0:~/src/notmuch:(master)$ make \r
+       -e Use "make V=1" to see the verbose compile lines.\r

+\r
+It's a shame that simple things like "echo" aren't easy to use portably.\r
+(And yes, I know that autoconf has a bunch of tests for echo, such as\r
+how to get the behavior of "echo -n", etc.)\r
