I'm using the :filter option, not the :buffer option, in make-network-process.

 (make-network-process
		  :name "mds"
		  :family 'ipv4
		  :service mds-port
		  :sentinel 'mds-sentinel
		  :filter 'mds-filter
		  :server 't)

That is done because the server handles multiple clients, so the filter
function routes the data to the appropriate buffer.  It isn't clear to
me whether using :coding then has an effect; I haven't seen it.

I tried setting up each client buffer with

    (with-current-buffer buf (set-buffer-multibyte nil))

and, in the filter function, just calling

    (insert string)

but, as mentioned that doesn't do the same as skipping the call to set-buffer-multibyte
and doing

   (insert (encode-coding-string string 'utf-8-unix))
