I want Pine's behavior on encoding MIME attachments, i.e. use almost
always base64. mm-content-transfer-encoding-defaults is set to:
(("text/x-patch" 8bit) ("text/.*" qp-or-base64)
("message/rfc822" 8bit) ("application/emacs-lisp" 8bit)
("application/x-patch" 8bit) (".*" base64))
But Gnus still sends out a 7bit application/rtf attachment in
plaintext. How do I achieve the desired effect?

I suspect that there is an old base64.el in your load path. Check
function base64-encode-region. If there are only two arguments, that's
it.

`base64-encode-region' is an interactive Lisp function
-- loaded from "base64"
(base64-encode-region START END &optional NO-LINE-BREAK)
Note that base64 actually works if it really needs to (that is,
sending a binary file as an attachment); what I want is to use base64
even if it does not seem necessary.
