I also met this problem sometimes. I guess whether base64.el had been
loaded when this happened. To verify my guess, check (featurep 'base64)
when the stuff is not decoded. GNUS does not complain since the
following codes are found in mm-decode-content-transfer-encoding.

    (condition-case ()
	(base64-decode-region (point-min) (point-max))
      (error nil))

Since I added (require 'base64) in .gnus, this bug never happened to
me.
