proper base 64 encode/decode functions?


libc contains a64l() and l64a() for base64 coding, however it uses a
non-standard alphabet so many applications re-implement base64.  Would
it make sense to include functions that implement base64 with the MIME
alphabet to libc?  If not, does anyone know of any common library
present in GNU systems that has MIME base64 functions (under GPL)?
