This is due to the earlier fix to set proper charsets. I need to 
remember not to rely on Python's as_bytes() mechanism -- we get much 
better control when we do as_string() and then do the encoding on our 
own.

The latest master/stable-0.5.y has the fix for this, I hope -- plus for 
the horrible header encoding.
