I'm sorry for my bad wording: what I wrote was only meant to describe
the way the code is currently expected to work (AFAIK).

That seems to be the source of the problem. utf-8 should always come
before latin-1 in that list, since utf-8 streams that are valid latin-1
streams are not uncommon, whereas latin-1 streams that are valid utf-8
streams are extremely rare.
