This appears to be a problem with Plone's uncode handling. My for for now is to edit;
Products/Archetypes/Field.py
And in the decode routine, insert a try/except around the uncode line.
try:
value = unicode(value, encoding)
except:
pass
If anyone else has a better solution, I'm all ears. I'm guessing this is down to a feed not properly specifying it's character set, and the code defaulting to utf8 when the set should actually be something else ...

This appears to fix the problem for now .. I notice the same error has been reported a number of times on other packages.
