Right.  I managed to reproduce this problem on my machine in "emacs -Q".

Yes.

Unfortunately, the way to fix this is not simple.  The way to put an
appropriate `coding:' tag in an Info file is to use the
@documentencoding command in the Texinfo source, and then use the
"--enable-encoding" command-line switch to makeinfo.  But these two
features were added in Texinfo 4.6, and I don't think we've decided to
require such a new version (released in June 2003) yet.

Richard, is it okay to assume Texinfo 4.6 for the CVS trunk?  If it's
okay, I can fix emacs-mime.texi and man/Makefile.in as described
above.
