I acknowledge the problem, but your patch breaks the "No maintainers
found, printing recent contributors" functionality.
Before:
$ scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f MAINTAINERS
get_maintainer.pl: No maintainers found, printing recent contributors.
get_maintainer.pl: Do not blindly cc: them on patches! Use common sense.

After:
$ scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f MAINTAINERS
qemu-devel@nongnu.org (open list:All patches CC here)
