I suspect you mean iso-8859-1.  (Both windows-1252 and iso-8859-1 provide 
useful fallbacks for mixed-character-set patches - what's relevant is 
actually the bytes of the patch, after all, when it's changing files that 
don't all use the same character set, and misinterpreting those bytes as 
the wrong characters doesn't matter so much.  This particular patch was 
actually iso-8859-1 - +/- signs in pre-existing comments in patch 
context.)
