Commit 2cf770 added testing of the --[no-]xmailer option to git 
send-email in t9001-send-email.sh
Unfortunately it used the modern Getopt::long style of --no-<option> to 
negate the option which is not supported with Getopt::Long 2.32 as 
shipped with perl 5.8.0 on RHEL3 causing the tests to fail.

Changing the --no-xmailer option to the old --noxmailer style allows the 
tests to pass.
