Double UTF-8 conversion is turning up on a large number of edits on Danish
wikis which have just been run through recompressTracked.php. Examples shown to
me:

A widely-used template:
http://da.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Skabelon:Standardstub&diff=prev&oldid=1936801

Various articles such as:
http://da.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lake_Torrens&diff=prev&oldid=1790478
http://da.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lind%C3%A5&diff=prev&oldid=1478894

I've stopped the jobs running on Hume pending Tim's investigation and fix. The
job was partway into dewiki at the time.

If only wikis using $wgLegacyEncoding and running the recompressTracked script
are affected, then dawiki and dawiktionary need cleanup.
