sieve.c also contains rfc2047 decoding functions, so we may be able to
merge some things. It's not exactly trivial if you want to do a better
job than some MUAs, but indeed very useful, hence required by Sieve.
It decodes everything to UTF-8 and my implementation is able to deal with
=00, but I doubt that automatic conversion to UTF-8 would be a good idea
in the Exim filter, unless it took UTF-8 filter scripts.

I already introduced HAVE_ICONV in the OS header files for Linux, Solaris
and HP-UX for Sieve support, so you can rely on using that.
