Ah, I see what happened: I was working on Windows when I wrote that, and 
rfc1345.el has a ^Z character near its beginning.  ^Z is a kind-of 
``software EOF'' on DOS and Windows, so most text-processing programs
there stop reading when they see the first ^Z.

I suggest to either remove that character (it's in a comment anyway) or 
replace it with some octal escape.  If that is somehow impossible, the 
only alternative is to mark that file binary in the CVS (which has some 
nasty side effects, and is thus not recommended).
