After CVS updating, I get this message sometimes, either when getting
new news or entering some newsgroups.

| iso-latin-1
| However, none of them safely encodes the target text.

| Select one of the following safe coding systems:

Debugging gives me:

The content of *temp file* is
+-------
| dk\.test\.utf8-æøå 324 605
+-------
Which I suspect is the problem. Agent is trying to save utf-8
information in a Latin-1 environment.
But I have no idea what to do about it. Suggestions?
