Let me confirm. Can this problem be solved if we use the binary
signature?

I think that it is the best way.
However, UA using traditional PGP easily cannot make text mode 
signatur.

I think that it should be as follows.

====
  SHOUD sign by binary mode signatue.

  Note:
   When using traditional PGP, UAs MAY sign by text mode   
   signature after MIME transfer encoding (Base64, Quated-printable,
   etc).  But, that UA is called `weak agent in OpenPGP/MIME'.
