Heh. That's a mess. It has

    Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

but then the name in the body is actually Latin1-encoded if I read it correctly.

Git will auto-convert invalid utf-8 by assuming it is latin1, so it
all ends up working, but Christian did something wrong in his mailer
too.

I suspect that the reason stgit screws up is the quoting of the name:

   From: "=?UTF-8?q?Christian=20K=C3=B6nig?=" <ckoenig.leichtzumerken@xxxxxxxxx>

maybe stgit thinks that quoting means "no charset translation".

But I'll leave it to Catalin & co to figure out. The last stgit commit
was just a few days ago, so it seems to be maintained.

Bjorn: it might be worth it trying to the very latest stgit:

    git://repo.or.cz/stgit.git

because there are _some_ locale changes in there.
