Package: xemacs21
Version: 21.4.17-1
Severity: normal

XEmacs/gnus is displaying encoded rfc2047 headers, which makes them
unreadable.  A typical Subject line is

 Subject:  =?UTF-8?B?W0lzc3VlIDkwOF0gIFN0b3JlIHRleHQtYmFzZSBjb21wcmVzc2Vk?=

which should be decoded to

 Subject:  [Issue 908]  Store text-base compressed

This affects both the summary window and the article window.  If I use
the menu option

 Article
   Display
     View as different encoding
       automatic-conversion

or run the command

 gnus-summary-show-article-from-menu-as-charset-automatic-conversion

then the header is decoded and displayed properly.

Previously I was using Woody's xemacs21-nomule with a local, pristine,
copy of gnus-5.10.6 and the headers were displayed correctly.

If I use Sarge's Emacs rather than XEmacs, i.e. emacs21 21.4a-1 and
gnus 5.10.6-0.CVS.20050317-1, the headers are displayed correctly.

I have tried using xemacs21-mule, changing my locale, using Sarge's
gnus 5.10.6-0.CVS.20050317-1 and using a pristine gnus 5.10.6 and none
of these solve the problem when using XEmacs.

Looking at the xemacs21 changelog I note that 21.4.17-1 fixed a regexp bug,
and browsing the web it seems that the bug was triggered by some rfc2047
code.
