That's very helpful - and not surprising. The uulib code has a
history of stability problems, which is why do_ascii is now disabled
by default in amavisd-new-2.6.4. I suggest you just turn it off.

Comment our (or delete) entries in the @decoders list which
mention a 'do_ascii', e.g.:

  @decoders = (
    ['mail', \&Amavis::Unpackers::do_mime_decode],
#   ['asc',  \&Amavis::Unpackers::do_ascii],
#   ['uue',  \&Amavis::Unpackers::do_ascii],
#   ['hqx',  \&Amavis::Unpackers::do_ascii],
#   ['ync',  \&Amavis::Unpackers::do_ascii],
    ['F',    \&Amavis::Unpackers::do_uncompress, \$unfreeze],
    ['Z',    \&Amavis::Unpackers::do_uncompress, \$uncompress],
    ['gz',   \&Amavis::Unpackers::do_gunzip],
...
  );

This can be done either in the file 'amavisd', or by copying
the whole assignment statement (to a variable @decoders)
to amavisd.conf.
