Summary: unicode() call failing, emails stuck in moderation queue

Initial Comment:
Some emails got stuck due to Logger.py dying.  This is
with 2.1.5.  I           
verified with a trunk version and spotted the problem
has not been              
corrected.

I find more unicode() calls in the Mailman 2.1.x source
tree that do not        
seem to guard against encoding failing or forget
ValueError.  Perhaps these also need either a(n)
(additional) safeguard or 'replace' addition?             
                                                      
                         
To note:                                              
                         
Mailman/Archiver/HyperArch.py:  charset =
unicode(charset[2], charset[0])
Mailman/Archiver/HyperArch.py:  body = unicode(body,
charset)                   
Mailman/Utils.py:            u = unicode(s, charset)
