Was the change ever made?  It does not seem to be in CVS.  

[Reminder: I am referring to undoing the change:

----------------------------
revision 1.425
date: 2006-04-19 09:55:40 +0000;  author: rfrancoise;  state: Exp;  lines: +2 -2
(rmail-convert-to-babyl-format): Use second group from
`rmail-mime-charset-pattern'.
----------------------------
in rmail.el and changing the regexp

=====
;;;###autoload
(defvar rmail-mime-charset-pattern
  (concat "^content-type:[ ]*text/plain;"
          "\\(?:[ \t\n]*\\(format\\|delsp\\)=\"?[-a-z0-9]+\"?;\\)*"
          "[ \t\n]*charset=\"?\\([^ \t\n\";]+\\)\"?")
  "Regexp to match MIME-charset specification in a header of message.
The first parenthesized expression should match the MIME-charset name.")

[just added "?:" in front of "format"]
