Ahhah! That's it. Not my MUA, but I'm using fetchmail, and I have copied 
my .fetchmailrc file around for years. As a result, it has 'mimedecode' 
set, because pine used to be really bad at this and obviously all my 
original BK (and later git) email scripts didn't do mime decoding either.

So what is probably happening is that my fetchmail setup dropped the 
charset information for the header (this is documented by fetchmail, so 
it's not a bug, it's just part of the rules) and just turned it into the 
raw byte sequence.

I've turned off mimedecode, can you send another email to me (in private) 
to see if not doing that just fixes things?
