Can you try the attached patch?

I confirm that the patch corrects the problem.

Without it I get the Cannot decode string error. With it gitweb
displays correctly.

But the patch _avoids_ issue (des not convert owner to utf8), rather
than solving it, if I understand it correctly. What if gecos is in
utf-8?

Indeed its a workaround but UTF-8 username is correctly displayed in gitweb so 
my understanding was gecos field is already UTF-8.
