I'll fix add_new(), but I'm not sure what else could be there.. That 
value gets passed as key parameter to message_body_search() and 
message_header_search_init(). Those call charset_to_ucase_utf8_string() 
to get an uppercase utf-8 string from it which is then compared to text 
found in messages.

Did you check if the ISO-2022-JP text is converted correctly to UTF-8 
at all? Looking at charset_to_ucase_utf8() in 
lib-charset/charset-iconv.c might show something.
