The problem seems to be caused by the fact that expect malinterprets
eight-bit input. Obviously I was wrong supposing it will be able to
handle it. In the absence of other solution, I'd recommend to disable
mailbox/testsuite/mailbox/encode2047.exp altogether (either by placing
`return 0' at the very beginning of it or simply by removing the file),
and to disable the 'ASCII upper part' test in mailbox/testsuite/Argcv
(by commenting out the lines 36-38). Later I will rewrite both
test cases.
