It is source archive (-src.tar.gz) I am talking about.  All binaries
are derivable from it.

I do not see a contradiction here.

It contains the same files as -src.zip. I used Apache Ant 1.7.0 to repack these
sources (using the package-src-tgz target from dist.xml, but with fxcrlf filter
removed).

There are also the following options:

1. Rerun the build, but now with
LANG=en_US.ISO8859-1; export LANG;
before it.

It will fix the UTF-8 issue with -src.tar.gz

2. Release as is. As Mark noted, 6.0.18 suffers from the same issue.

I am OK with it.
