Darn.  The multibyteness here isn't what you should be looking at,
though -- the " *nntpd*" buffer is multibyte, so it's all gonna end up
in that state, anyway.  We just have to trick Emacs into not
interpreting the files as text, but as bytes, which is what nnml's
request-article function does, for instance.
