your input file emacs.db is not utf-8 encoded. pandoc simply foregoes
the entire encoding mess and assumes everything is utf-8.

makeinfo doesn't seem to have a way of specifying the output encoding,
so the easiest way to go about this is probably to open emacs.db in
emacs and save it as utf-8 (C-x RET f).
