This is the message that (supposedly?) has a bad sequence (1.91 KB, text/plain)

Another example. Note the high-ascii, despite the charset being set to 7bit us-ascii (2.36 KB, text/plain)

Description Christophe Lambin 2002-04-21 07:51:51 UTC 
g_convert() is unable to convert the message, so Pan displays a blank
message. We may want to display the unconverted message when this happens ?

Fixed in CVS: if the Article lies about its charset,
Pan falls back to the group's default charset.
This works for me for the two groups you provided.
