This is not what wm4 proposes. What he proposes is not "wrong charset" but
"no encoding specified". My answer is that he must always specify an
encoding. If the application does so, the code path the patch changes is not
reached anyway; there is still a bit of work to arrive to "wrongly displayed
subs", but mostly trivial.
