Does this change mean notmuch won't build at all for people with gmime-3
< 3.0.3? I understand that's not a problem in Debian, but what about in
general?

Since we already have util/gmime-extra.c to deal with differences
between gmime-3.0 and 2.6, and since this code is purely gmime related
(not using any notmuch data or types), it makes sense to me put this
(split) there. I guess we might use a different prefix for stuff we add,
although iirc we didn't bother for zlib-extra.c
