In this case, it should be `utf-8', shouldn't it?

Still trying to understand: is the coding system wrong when you export
to a file, to a (temporary) buffer, or both?

Note that `org-export-to-file' use `coding-system-for-write', which
overrides `buffer-file-coding-system'. So this variable is probably
irrelevant here.
