Is this anything more than the \n vs \r\n line termination question?  
sharutils has worked well for me.  Try either starting with \r\n separators, 
or removing them from the uudecode result.  IIRC, I had better luck with the 
source code which came with my linux than with that from the ftp.gnu.org.
