Hmm, thanks for the patch.
"Unfortunately", the bug was already fixed by KHZ some time ago:
    while (1) {
        result = FindBoundary(pos, &boundaryStart, &boundaryEnd, 
&isFinal);
        // NOTE: For enhanced fault tolerance we *accept* a missing last
        //       boundary.
        //       If no last boundary is found (but at leat a first one 
was
        //       there) we just assume the end of the text ebing the end
        //       of the last part.
        //       By doing so we can safely parse some buggy MS Outlook
        //       clients' messages.                      (khz, 
12.06.2002)
        start = pos;

        if (result == kParseFail) {
            isFinal = true;
            len = mString.length() - pos;
        } else {
            len = boundaryStart - pos;
        }

It will be in 3.1.
