Nope, not for me. I'm seeing the 8-bit chars as, e.g., "<95>", in
reverse video when I un-qp your test message and mhshow it.

I'm not seeing that:

  PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
  850 pts/0    Ss     0:00 -bash
 1284 pts/0    S+     0:00  \_ mhshow 216
 1287 pts/0    S+     0:00      \_ /usr/bin/less 
/home/uckelman/Mail/mhshow2s5hyN
 1290 pts/0    R+     0:00          \_ ps fww

Hmm.
