Huh. After a bit of debugging, the mangling is due to mutt's default for send_charset
being

"us-ascii:iso-8859-1:utf-8"

and selecting iso-8859-1 instead of utf-8 as the encoding despite the original
mail being utf-8. In this case, mutt ran afoul of nbsp (u+00a0).

AFAICT, the solution is to essentially tell mutt to never try to use iso-8859-1
for sending mail

set send_charset="us-ascii:utf-8"
