Could you please try below?

(make-coding-system
 'hebrew-iso-8bit 2 ?8
 "ISO 2022 based 8-bit encoding for Hebrew (MIME:ISO-8859-8)"
 '(ascii hebrew-iso8859-8 nil nil
   nil ascii-eol ascii-cntl nil nil nil nil nil t)
 '((safe-charsets ascii hebrew-iso8859-8 eight-bit-control)
   (mime-charset . iso-8859-8)))

This definition is different from the original only in
including eight-bit-control in safe-charsets.
