Well, contrib/base64.el isn't part of the "real" Gnus distribution, or is it? (Due to copyright reasons.) If it isn't, it probably makes sense to include the wrapper in a file that is part of the real distribution. Or? But now that I actually look in contrib/base64.el my copy do have b-{d,e}-string. So it would work as a workaround. Does your copy differ?
