I created a large file ("/tmp/pjbb") by concatenating:

Then I grep'd in this big file for the string "p...@usa.net
<mailto:p...@usa.net>", which
appeared twice in the first file of C source code, and once
again in the second file of C source code.
That example contains NULs, which have indicated binary data for ages. I
was referring to text containing encoding errors without containing
NULs, which is what this bug report originally was about. Sorry I didn't
make that clear.
