Nevertheless, the patch is a hack.  Any software that uses qp encoding
for PDF is broken; I don't think we should take responsibility for fixing
it.  I won't put this in the 5.412 official release, or at most, if I do
put it in, you'll have to set a flag in the parser constructor, something
like this:

	foo = MIME::Parser->new(PDFQPHackForBrokenOutlook => 1);
