Well, updating my pipeline to replace id3v2mux in -good with id3mux in -bad
certainly seems to solve the problem.  I haven't probed it in great detail, but
the tag discussed above ("producer" in a user-defined frame) is encoded in
UTF-16, while the rest (containing only 7-bit characters) appear to be
ISO-8859-1, and that's OK with me.

This outcome doesn't exactly close the bug, but it's a successful workaround
for me.  And if id3v2mux's days are numbered, it's probably not worth putting
too much into this.

Incidentally, I am now getting cover art correctly via id3mux; I think Bug
598733 (resolved/fixed) explains why I didn't before, with an earlier version.
