1) save it to file, say, test.txt
2) cat test.txt test.txt >> /var/spool/mail/$USER
(more than one mail is important!)
3) receive the mail with gnus (i used nnmbox backend)
4) mark both messages using hash (#)
5) press C-M-d
then the summary buffer for these digests looks like:
[ 1: aa1@bbb.ccc ] subj1
< 1: aa1@bbb.ccc >
[ 1: Gr\201Э\201ъ Gott ] Gr\201Э\201ъ Gott
< 1: Gr\201Э\201ъ Gott >
[ 1: aa3@bbb.ccc ] subj3
< 1: aa3@bbb.ccc >
something is wrong with handling of multibyte buffers in gnus.
such problems appear quite regularly... :-(
Best regards, -- Vladimir.

It depends on how you save it to file. There are coding system bugs
in gnus-output-to-file, gnus-output-to-rmail, and
gnus-output-to-mail. Therefore, please check whether test.txt contains
non-ascii characters.
I'd sent a patch to Lars 20 days ago. I hope it will be applied 0.96.

I get a much different summary buffer if I simply burst the digest with
Ctrl-D (gnus-summary-enter-digest-group). This looks okay to me, given
that your example digest had three messages in it. (I get correct
translation of those groovy multibyte characters too.)
[ 1: Grüß Gott ] Grüß Gott
[ 1: aa ] subj1
[ 1: aa ] subj3
If I follow Vladimir's recipe, I also get odd characters in the summary
buffer, although slightly different from his. (I created a doc group with
'G f' pointing to the temp file.) I even get the weirdness with just one
of the messages:
[ 1: Gr ] Gr Gott
[ 1: aa ] subj1
[ 1: aa ] subj3
The funniest thing is that I get the correct character after the \201 in
the Subject, but nothing in the "from" section.
Gnus is doing weird things, though. I opened and closed these Doc groups a
couple times. Now when I try 'M-C-d' I get errors about selecting a
deleted buffer. When I do plain old 'C-d', I am able to get one buffer
just fine. When I use gnus-summary-enter-digest-group, it works correctly
every time. What is different in gnus-summary-read-document?
