Ok I was wrong,

this is a valid UTF8 sequence and my latex tools don't recognize it.

Just for pleasure of arguing:
http://macromates.com/blog/archives/2005/09/18/handling-encodings-utf-8/

"Generating a random 15 byte sequence containing characters in the range
0×17—0xFF has a probability of 0.000081 to be valid UTF-8 (the probability gets
lower, the longer the sequence is, and is also lower for actual text)."

"Property 3 turns out to be attractive because it means we can heuristically
recognize UTF-8 with a near 100% certainty by checking if the file is valid.
Some software think it’s a good idea to embed a BOM (byte order mark) in the
beginning of an UTF-8 file, but it is not, because the file can already be
recognized, and placing a BOM in the beginning of a file means placing three
bytes in the beginning of the file which a program that use the file may not
expect (e.g. the shell interpreter looks for #! as the first two bytes of an
executable)."

Greetings,

Clément.
