It's getting stranger and stranger. My local 83haiku file has one dot
and also the first 83haiku I uploaded has only one, but the second one
does indeed have a double dot. I have no idea how that happened (but I
have a feeling that reportbug has something to do with it).

Attached is the final 83haiku script: no double dot; "$mpoint" instead
of "$2" and executable bit set (although I doubt that it will carry
over by email).
