pgnus 0.83 bug inlining mime part

Pgnus 0.83 doesn't properly inline the mime attachment in David Maze's
message "Brokenness with postscript in mail-source-fetch-pop"
<87pv3w99e7.fsf@annular-fried-pastry.mit.edu>.

When I display the article initially, all is well.

Next, I do `2 K i'.  The mime part *is* inlined, but not where one
might expect, after the corresponding part button.  Instead, the part
is inlined immedately after the first line of the first text/plain
part.

Typing `2 K i' again correctly removes the inlined information from
its incorrect location.

If switch to the article buffer, move the point to the article button
for the second part, and then type `i', the part is inlined correctly.

I can also inline the part properly by the sequence of keys, `h TAB h
2 K i', starting in the summary buffer.  This just moves the point in
the summary buffer to the start of the button for the part to be
inlined, switches back the article buffer, and then does the normal
part inlining command.

I've attached the message which exhibits the problem.

Dale.

mail-source-fetch-pop, as distributed with Pterodactyl Gnus 0.84,
wants to run user-provided prescript and postscript code when pulling
mail off of a POP server.  Unfortunately, the postscript code is
broken: it checks to see whether prescript is defined, and if it is,
runs postscript.  This breaks if postscript is undefined.  This patch
should fix it:

Yup.  Fix in Pterodactyl Gnus v0.86.
