The text/plain version of email alert has bad encoding marker

An alert email contains both a plain text version and an HTML version of the alert. Since these messages are localized, they may contain non-ASCII characters. The HTML part is correctly marked as being UTF-8-encoded, but the plain text part is not. It defaults to us-ascii.

I took a look in the code, and it seems that this simple fix would solve the problem:
