Pascal, Tomas, many thanks for your comments and suggestions!  I
eventually resorted to a brute-force solution: I created many copies
of a fragment of the file, with a different -*- coding: ??? -*-
line at the top, and opened all these copies in Emacs.  Then I
scanned all of them using *Buffer List*.  Dumb but effective.
