This appears to be the same problem as in the thread at
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2006-February/049333.html>
which was apparently worked around by rebuilding the archive with
'bin/arch --wipe'.

I haven't looked at this in any detail, but it looks like maybe we
changed the encoding of author and/or subject so if you upgrade in the
middle of a month, you get this problem in the database.
