Thanks for all the responses to this problem.

coding-system-for-read is nil. file-coding-system-alist looks the same as
the normal.

The files are normal unicode text. But, they appear as sequences of octets,
as if they were visited by find-file-literally.
There is `t' in the modeline. `buffer-file-coding-system' is getting set to
`no-conversion', whereas normally it is `utf-8-unix'.
These files work fine in Emacs23. The problems only arise in Emacs24.

coding-system-for-read is nil.

I have made some progress on narrowing down the problem. It happens only if
VM is used along with emacs-w3m for displaying the HTML content. Without
emacs-w3m, everything works fine.
Emacs-w3m evidently does a lot of manipulations with coding-systems. But,
they are only supposed to affect the interaction with the w3m sub-process.
So, it is not clear why they should affect the reading of files. Indeed, in
Emacs23 they didn't.
If you would like to take a look at what w3m does, here is a linke to the
main file:
