psycopg2.DataError: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xb7
HINT: This error can also happen if the byte sequence does not match the
encoding expected by the server, which is controlled by "client_encoding".

This happened with signature that were not detached, and contained non-UTF-8
characters.

Fixed in commit 8259, by ignoring such large files (larger than the signed file,
quite simply).
