My mutt-foo isn't very good. I tried to tell it utf-8, but I think its ignoring me:

  set allow_8bit=yes
  set charset=utf8
:-/

I just tried to reproduce it myself and I can't do whatever I did before again now; it Just Works(tm). *sigh* No idea how I messed the patch application up earlier, but I did.

It wasn't my patch editing. My vi clone only works on bytes, so it doesn't care about character encodings and won't mangle them unless I edit a utf-8 multibyte sequence by hand. Which I'm sure I didn't do. And the first time I messed up the apply I was fixing up only .dotest/patch, which was most certainly just us-ascii.

I'm actually pretty good about making sure I don't munge people's non-ASCII names, but my mutt seems to think us-ascii is the only character encoding in the world.
