I have five XEmacsen installed.  Those are:

1. 21.4.19 with mule with file-coding
2. 21.4.19 with mule without file-coding
3. 21.4.19 without mule without file-coding
4. 21.5-b24 with mule with file-coding
5. 21.5-b24 without mule with file-coding

Only 3 doesn't have coding system functions including
`decode-coding-string', `encode-coding-region', etc., and mm-util
makes them all aliases to `identity', `ignore' or equivalents.
Even so, if I understand it correctly, that version of XEmacs
displays 8-bit data as Latin-1 characters.  For example:

(insert "\310")
È

(mm-decode-coding-string "\310" 'iso-8859-1)
"È"

(mm-decode-coding-string "\310" 'any-coding-system)
"È"

The last example suggests we can make `mm-coding-system-p' return
any value, that is, it doesn't have to be a coding system object.
Actually, the following form works:

(let ((mm-coding-system-list '(iso-8859-1)))
  (rfc2047-decode-string
   "=?ISO-8859-1?Q?Ignacio_Marambio_Cat=E1n?="))
"Ignacio Marambio Catán"

So, changing

(defvar mm-coding-system-list nil)

to

(defvar mm-coding-system-list '(iso-8859-1))

in mm-util.el will solve at least the problem that Mike Kupfer
first brought up.  Is there any coding systems which should be
added to the default value other than iso-8859-1 that XEmacs
without mule without file-coding supports?

I'm not sure it solves all problems with Gnus and that version
of XEmacs, though.
