This is an ancient (pre-MIME) encoding for files known as "uuencode", 
recognizable from the "begin ... end" pair. You need a uudecode tool 
which is standard on ancient systems like Acorn, but is available 
everywhere.

Anyhow, here's the changeset as MIME attachment, compliant to the 
Squeak Mailing List Charter.
