Oleg,

No worries about closing the bug.  I was a little slow in getting to it.

I agree.  I think we should be using 8859-1 instead of ASCII.  The following section 
from RFC 2616 
seems to imply that TEXT should be 8859-1, though it is a little vague:

The TEXT rule is only used for descriptive field contents and values that are not 
intended to be 
interpreted by the message parser. Words of *TEXT MAY contain characters from 
character sets 
other than ISO- 8859-1 [22] only when encoded according to the rules of RFC 2047draft 
[14].

TEXT := <any OCTET except CTLs, but including LWS>


Either way I think digest needs to be fixed.  I will create a patch.

Mike
