To save those cases, I think chaging the code of reading the
process output to use `undecided' coding-system is enough.

If two files contain identical characters (just encodings
are different), I'm not sure what is the right thing.  If we
decode the both hunks correctly, a user will see no
difference and wonder why Emacs tells those lines are
different.
