If we make sure we're converting all non-printable characters into something

educate me!

It's a case of fooling the GB* and multibyte converters into aborting at an 
opportune moment.  MRC had a bible of all these edge cases that, sadly, expired 
with him :-(

What we really need is for someone to run a fuzzer over the nmh code base and 
see just what blows up.  I doubt the results will be pretty.
