The sample capture I was using is 
https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=5350

The manuf entry for that is (escaped):

00:50:C2:0A:20:00/36    J\xC3\xAF\xC2\xBF\xC2\xBDgerCom

And, actually, Wireshark displays it pretty much like Unidecode() does:

Ji?1/2gerC

I guess there is no problem after all...  (Well, unless there IS some 
non-UTF8 in there.)
