This started to happen the 2016-08-27 with 0.10; the 2016-08-26 the
version 0.9.6.4 build happily succeeded (both in unstable/i386).

I'm not aware of any change of any sort in our infrastructure that day.

I kinda of leen toward some kind of regression in dput itself, not sure
what (and haven't digged deeper).

In the first build we export LANG=C, I wonder if that messes with
python's encoding foo.
