AFAICS the existing `rmail-mime' command (bound to the "v" key) in the
current trunk handles this example just fine. (I did have to edit the
example a bit, but I think that was just to extract it from the mail it
was embedded in when sent to this list.)

If it works for you I would like to close this bug.
