The just-released Apple Xcode 6.0.1 has -Wstring-plus-int enabled by default which complains about pointer arithmetic applied to a string literal:

    builtin/mailinfo.c:303:24: warning:
        adding 'long' to a string does not append to the string
            return !memcmp(SAMPLE + (cp - line), cp, strlen(SAMPLE) ...
                           ~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~
Resolve this issue.

This is atop 2da1f366 (mailinfo: make ">From" in-body header check more robust; 2014-09-13) in 'next'.

In addition to the above diagnostic, the Apple compiler also helpfully recommends &SAMPLE[cp - line] as a replacement to avoid the warning, however, the solution in this patch allows us drop a couple strlen()s in favor of sizeof()s.
