Your mail headers include this:
Content-Transfer-Encoding: QUOTED-PRINTABLE
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=ISO-8859-1
but the mail body has this:
It includes modifications as suggested by J. Bruce Fields, Karl
Hasselstr=C3=B6m and Daniel Barkalow.
(That's a two-byte sequence for a single character, which indicates
utf8 and rules out latin1.)
I guess the program that generates the e-mail (git-format-patch?)
thinks it's getting latin1 input, when it's in fact getting utf8
input. This is the exact same error (or rather, the exact same
symptom) that's happened once or twice the last week or so.
