Indeed. This is an old problem, which annoys me a lot. I use a
patched XEmacs which complains loudly about coding errors, so in this
situation I get a complaint each time I save.
Either the X-VM-v5-Data fields should be stored in a fixed universal
encoding, or they should be mime-encoded.
But I haven't got round to fixing it yet!
