formail doesn't help.

Do you remember where you got the archive from?
Do you have a way to re-export it?

I picked up the gzip'ped archives from:

 http://www.hpl.hp.com/hosted/linux/mail-archives/libunwind/

Unfortunately, it does look like those files are corrupted.  A mailman
bug?  I'll see if I can get the original files.
