Which version of offlineimap is this against?  I have in
/usr/bin/offlineimap the following line:

init.startup('4.0.0')

That is from debian testing, and the patch you provided doesn't apply
cleanly at the second hunk.

tp600x:~# which offlineimap
/usr/bin/offlineimap
tp600x:~# dpkg -S /usr/bin/offlineimap
offlineimap: /usr/bin/offlineimap
tp600x:~# dpkg -l | grep -i offlineimap
ii  offlineimap    4.0.0          IMAP/Maildir synchronization and reader supp
tp600x:~#

Thanks for the patch.  I just moved to gnus and offlineimap recently,
and don't know if some of my problems are me, gnus or offlineimap.
