Thank you for the report.

I copied your file texi-index-bug.texi and ran pdfetex on it. I got a correct
UTF-8 encoded output, which I've attached.

I know there can be differences between TeX engines in how byte values 
128-255 are handled.

I will look at the patches you sent and see if they make a difference to 
anything.
