This reproduces on Emacs 25. But I wonder if this should be a wishlist
instead of a bug. As the original report notes, decoding a buffer
while encoding another buffer doesn't seem like a normal use-case.
If no one objects in the next few weeks, I can wishlist this. Making it
a minor-severity bug also seems reasonable to me.
