The original base64 code worked fine, but no-one supports the 
Content-Transfer-Encoding header that the RFC recommends should be used.
The newer raw-byte version does work, but only in some situations.
Having just had to write some file upload handling code for work,
I think I've got a better idea how to go about doing it in Lynx,
so I'll be redoing the raw-byte patch soon.  Probably this weekend,
since I'll probably need to upload files with Lynx to test things.

Handling multipart/form-data in ASP files isn't fun.  At all.
