pG0.65: Error when trying to display an html part

[Jean-Yves Perrier]

Hello,

I got the following with one of the message I received
(a multipart alternative: text - html, with html as the
default display)

Pterodactyl Gnus v0.65 WWW 4.0pre.32, URL p4.0pre.32, MM 1.96
on Emacs 20.3

Here is the backtrace:
