Hi,

Say there is a file containing non-ascii characters like this:

;;; test.el -*- coding: iso-2022-7bit; -*-
(message "ใƒ†ใ‚นใƒˆ")

When I save this to test.el.gz, `buffer-file-coding-system' is
changed to `no-conversion' and I can see the contents are not
encoded (IOW, encoded by `utf-8-emacs') in that file.  This
happens not only with an ELisp file (try the etc/HELLO file).
No problem on Emacs 24.3.

Thanks.
