Thanks to the reply from Handa-san, I understand that aref() of Emacs
21 acts differently from Emacs 20.7. And this is not a bug, a spec
change.

I thus made a workaround to fix this problem. Now the separator
between Subject: and boy is in a right position on Emacs 21.

However, I found another bug concerned with composition characters in
Emacs 21. Writing a buffer with 'ctext into a file produces a strange
encoding. So, when you re-visit an folder, composition characters are
left un-composite.

I will report this bug to GNU when I can find a simple example.
