I've notice from my pacman.log this line:

[2015-05-30 19:39] [ALPM] upgraded hunspell-en (7.1-3 -> 2015.05.18-1)

Notice the curious change in version number style. I've downgraded to
hunspell-en-7.1-3 [1] and it looks fine now.
@Ralf: you can try downgrading instead of manually editing the file
and see if it fixes the issues.

Anyway, I've noticed that besides the wrong encoding, there are some
broken symbolic links in that package, so I submitted a bug report to
the Arch package [2].
