I'm not sure what Emacs should do in such a case, but in the example
above, using a multibyte buffer is asking for trouble.
Can't Gnus use a unibyte buffer in its corresponding code? That would
speed things up, save you the use of string-to-multibyte, and make it
crystal clear that the result should be unibyte.
Stefan "trying hard not to say that the use of a multibyte
buffer here is a plain bug ;-)"
