Fix test suite issues with iso8859-1 parameters

[kasal]

I fixed the two failing test scripts following Karsten's hint from here:
2482bc9#commitcomment-5946968

I had this as one commit originally (kasal:test-fix) but changed that to contain reverts.

I found a similar fix in t4205, so I updated it and added a comment.

Out of curiosity:
What about 1.9.1? Are you going to rebase the msysgit-specific patches? Should the reverted ones get dropped?

Please note that force-pushing to the branch updates the pull request, so there was no need to open another pull request for the same issue.

I will review after merging the tag-contains branch.

I tried to work along these lines. But I closed the PR first, indicating that this is not the right one.
I would reopen later, if the commit list changed, but it didn't.
This was probably my fault, as I used delete&create instead of --force, and I pushed the right version on second attempt. I'll do better next time.

@kasal once you close a pull request, the commit list is not updated until you reopen. Typically it is enough to comment: "Hold off!". We're usually very good at reading what you write in those comments ;-)
