If this is exiscan rev -24 (from BSD ports), this may be a singlepart
base64 encoded message (probably autogenerated by some script).

There is a bug in -24 that will cause a segfault on such messages.

You can

- set exiscan_demime_condition = 0 and wait for the FreeBSD exim
port manager to update the port (hi Sheldon, please don't hit
me *OUCH*).

- get exim-4.12 and exiscan-4.12-25 and compile manually.

To avoid such nastyness in the future, there will be a -STABLE and
-DEVEL version of the exiscan patch soon.

It took me too long to realize the increased popularity of my patch.
Sorry for the fuzz :(
