Yes, it does.  I am not including the backtrace this time, but a different
error occurs when I use this coding system.  Drat.  

I've also noticed that old mail messages (nnml) that were saved before the
transition to Emacs 20.3 are a little strange.  Pgnus is not able to parse
the header information out of the file.  Actually, it only seems to be the
code associated with Message.  The summary buffer looks right, but replying
or following up to a message gives me a message buffer with an empty
Subject and no To line.  It has no problems with messages that have been
stored since the arrival of 20.3.
