Fix mimedecode last-line omission.
The mimedecode feature failed to ship the last line of the body if it was encoded as quoted-printable and had a MIME soft line break in the very last line. Reported by Lars Hecking in June 2011. Bug introduced on 1998-03-20 when the mimedecode support was added by ESR before release 4.4.1 through code contributed by Henrik Storner, in driver.c. Workaround for older releases: do not use mimedecode feature.

* The build process can now be made a bit more silent and concise through
./configure --enable-silent-rules, or by adding "V=0" to the make command.
