The question is: how should the tool behave in this situation and what
consequences does it have?

 - extract filenames as octects verbatim, leading to unrepresantable
   filenames that "ls" will not properly show and that are hard to
   rename with the shell.

 - extract (like before the change) the result of the iconv() call, i.e.
   in this case "???.py", which gives high possibilities of unexpected
   name clashes in the output if multiple files are affected.

 - fail to extract (like after the change and like all other tools I know
   in the same situation), which makes things complicated for pkgsrc
   but most obvious for the local user.
