Should I remove my sign with Cyrillic UTF-8 chars from messages with patches then?
Naw, as long as it's not in the diff - and even then it would still work just won't DISPLAY right. diff's are bounded. It has a beginning "+++ ---" and then it says "use the next Y lines". You can have as much garbage as you want above and below them. This was done intentionally, so that diffs could be included directly in emails.
OK, so I will include short diffs right into the message and long and complex compress with gzip. Right? [offtopic on] BTW, about complex patches - I have a patch from Martin Devera that adds support for gdbm database backend to pacman 2.9.8. I suggested him to contact VMiklos for help in inclusion it in pacman, but I don't know if he did that. If I adapt it for Pacman 3 API is there a chance it will be included at least in CVS/DARCS?
