Thanks, test cases are always helpful, as they often allow to better pinpoint
the core issue. Glad you found the cause!

Can confirm that CR linebreaks in base64-encoded messages are not displayed
using current git master.

In fact, this is not really specific to base64 encoding: Converting any mbox
file (e.g. with "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7Bit") with "unix2mac" to use CR
linebreaks yields an empty message view already, and converting only the mail
body shows the header at least, but misses linebreaks in the message text.

Note that only the message view is affected. When opening the "Message as Plain
Text" window through "View Source", the linebreaks are displayed just fine.
