Yes, the content of the buffer is generated by
message-encode-message-body in message.el itself.

You only need to insert an unicode letter in the message's buffer to
trigger the issue when recoding to qp-utf8.

I wrote to Lars prior to filing this report (cc-ed).

Since the fcc-handler is expected to do something with the buffer (write
it out), I expect message.el to preset the buffer coding system if the
buffer becomes unibyte in nature.
