Maybe this is related: on a Kubuntu 15.08 box with a 2 week old emacs
25.0.92.2 and git 2.5.0, if I visit etc/HELLO (on a Emacs checkout) and
do `C-x v l' and then, on the *vc-change-log* buffer, put the cursor on
the last commit (etc/HELLO: Add Armenian and Mongolian greetings.) and
press `d', the ensuing *vc-diff* buffer contains mostly garbage.
