This sounds very believable, but I am having a hard time convinving myself. I used the system `mail' command to send myself a few mails ending in blank lines. I used Emacs 22.3 to convert the resulting mail spool file to Babyl, then the current trunk's unrmail to convert that Babyl back to mbox. The mbox I got back was identical to the original mail spool (modulo the addition of X-RMAIL-ATTRIBUTES and X-Coding-System) headers. So I cannot see that blank lines are going missing (unless going from Babyl to mbox adds one, and going the other way subtracts one?).
