They should not change it, but... (BBDB originally had no encoding
support, and some people took part of my advice to add .bbdb to
`file-coding-system-alist', but chose to ignore the actual coding
system :-(.)

It's not relevant. You need to be able to store all text in the file,
not just Latin-1 names, for instance. It's the same issue as for
auto-save files &c.
