[Reportbug-maint] Bug#857794: reportbug: crash when encountering some non-ASCII characters

[Louis-Philippe Véronneau]

Control: tag -1 patch

Hi!

I tested your patch (0001-Stop-using-subprocess.getoutput.patch) and it
works fine for me using C locales and packages where the maintainer's
name has non-ascii chars.

It's not pretty thought (but does not crash, so \0/):

"Maintainer for stressant is 'Antoine Beaupr\xe9 <anarcat at debian.org>'."

Happy to do some more testing if needed.

Cheers,
