The patch applies fine, and queries interactively correctly with a bug
report against the apt package, but the info is not entered as mime
attachments for me using mh-e.

The problem is two-fold.  First, I would change:

          (when (and (boundp 'mml-mode) mml-mode) 
to:
          (when (boundp 'mml-mode)

and " disposition=inline" to " disposition=attachment"

e.g. don't limit to mml-mode, and use "attachment" instead of "inline".

Any downside to that for other MUAs that you can think of?

Second, the search for mml directives is too restrictive in mh-e in
`mh-mml-tag-present-p'. I get:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Stack overflow in regexp matcher")

I think just finding the beginning should be enough, and I can patch
mh-e for that.  The alternative is saving the attachment in a tmp file
and referencing that file in the mml construct.
