Each 'encoded-word' MUST represent an integral number of characters.
A multi-octet character may not be split across adjacent 'encoded-
word's.
It doesn't mean to prohibit to try to decode them though, and
that Gnus does it would be nice.
I agree. Maybe mailers should not generate this,
but if they do, it is better for Gnus to handle it right.
BTW, I realized that that fix was insufficient. For instance,
it will display binary garbage if the charset specified in the
encoded-word is unknown. So, I will CVS commit the new code
after a while.
Thank you in advance.
