this may have come across as pretty cocky, so here's the script. it got
a bit longer than a dozen lines -- I wanted it to be readable, after
all :-) note that there should be a literal TAB in the second case
statement.

this should be RFC compliant, except for one thing: it does not verify
that the boundary actually is unique. to do that you need to use
temporary files, and I couldn't be bothered.

#! /bin/sh
