If you try to install a program and one of the files
declares an unknown encoding(like 'UFT-8'),
byte-compiling the file fails and get the message, "Sorry:
MemoryError: ()"

This message obscures the problem and makes it difficult
to spot the problem.
In fact, it took me a while to find out that the unknown
encoding declaration caused the trouble.

The error message needs to be more explicit.
