I was parsing all the .html files in my /usr/doc -- about 25,000.  Trying
to get an idea what users of swish-e might encounter when they index their
own documents.  That file is a MHonArc mail archive, which, I assume, might
end up with mixed encodings.  Again, it was just a random file from /usr/doc.

Thanks, again.
