OK, that worked. What was the difference? La voici :
For the initial bug report, I used `C-c C-c' from `report-emacs-bug',
and then I used `C-v' in the popped up MS Outlook mail message window.
For the followup, I selected the char with the region in Emacs and
then used `C-v' in the MS Outlook mail message window. So it seems
like `report-emacs-bug' doesn't quite DTRT always.
