Comment(by ashinn):

 Maybe I misunderstand, but your code does not generate
 an invalid byte sequence for me:

 $ csi -R utf8 -p "(list->string (map integer->char '(#b11000000
 #b10100111)))"
 ˤ
 $ csi -R utf8 -p "(list->string (map integer->char '(#b11000000
 #b10100111)))" | hexdump -C
 00000000  c3 80 c2 a7 0a                                    |.....|
 00000005

 These are the characters 00C0;LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH GRAVE
 and 00A7;SECTION SIGN corresponding to #b11000000 and #b10100111.

 If you find what you think is a bug, please write a full program and
 attach it,
 using "test" to show clearly what you expect and what is different.
