The sample is a well-formed nested multipart.  I know SA had problems
descending into nested parts in the past, but I've lost track of the
status.  What version are you using?  Can someone say whether this is
still a problem in 2.60?

It's stretching the semantics of multipart/related a bit to make the first
part be multipart/alternative, because the intent is that announcing the
type of the first part of the m/r allows the user agent to decide how to
render the content -- which the UA can't do without lookahead if the first
part is another multipart.  However, it isn't actually invalid AFAICT.
