You can only filter on headers, and this one comes in the body, and
only for some of them.  Some are text/html with euc-kr charsets IIRC.

I've installed an experimental filter on the autoconf list which I will
monitor for the next couple of days.  If it's successful, adding it to
automake list should be a piece of cake.
