I would say gnus, since you get it with xemacs -vanilla (which means
that latin-unity isn't involved).
I think some change from Aidan (added after the 5.10.6 release) loads
latin-unity from Gnus:
,----[ gnus/lisp/mm-util.el ]
| (defun mm-xemacs-find-mime-charset-1 (begin end)
| "Determine which MIME charset to use to send region as message.

I'm seeing a number of anomolies with Gnus, but since I'm running
bleeding edge CVS, I've not been too eager to dive into Gnus code; I'm
currently batting about 2 for 15 even localizing problems with Gnus.
I would say that posting to ding is a good idea because they're more
likely to be able to localize it with a small effort. Even if they
point the finger back here. ;-)
Sure. ;-)
BTW, it would be good if the XEmacs Gnus package could provide the
date when the package was synched with the Gnus v5-10 branch. Without
a date, "5.10.7" is rather pointless.
Bye, Reiner.
