Identifying whether the issue is due to invalid base64 characters or due to an 
improperly constructed MIME part is prerequisite to deciding those semantics.

The point is that accidentally glomming non-base64 data into the decoder
The nmh base64 decoder does a good job of not getting tripped by that, and I'd 
like to keep it that way.
