A bit of edebugging and I basically understand the mistaken forgery
business now.  The problem is that mm-handle-multipart-from is
returning nil when working on the (signed) output of a decryption
where as it's getting the From address when working on a cleartext
signed message.  I see that mm-handle-multipart-from is a macro that
simply looks for a text property so I conclude that when decryption is
needed first the text property is not getting set.  Unfortunately I
have a very little understanding of text properties and have thus far
been unable to figure out where it's getting set when reading the
signed message so I can't say why it's not happening on the decrypted
buffer.
