[Buildbot-devel] still can't reliably attach patches, get UnicodeDecodeError

[Dan Kegel]

I'm running buildbot from git, up to date as of yesterday,
and I'm still suffering crashes when patches are attached
to status emails.  Guess I'll have to turn that feature off
for now.  Here's the backtrace:

        Traceback (most recent call last):

Not sure what it was unhappy about, the patch it was trying to attach is
