I suspect you are confused with the distinction between the MUA (Gnus)
and the PGP library (PGG).  PGG provides a general facility to use PGP
commands from Emacs and is now used by a program other than Gnus.

What I suggested was to make all input to pgg-encrypt-region (for
PGP/MIME encryption) MIME canonical format with CRLF line-endings by
Gnus and remove line-end conversion code from PGG.

BTW, would you please revert the the --textmode patch until the real
problem is clear to us?

FYI, I found that two major MUA (Mozilla Thunderbird with Enigmail,
and Mew) which call gpg command internally do NOT use --textmode even
when non-MIME encryption.
