Bilmey. That's more than weird, it's incredible. But the fact that I do
99% of my development on XP these days does explain why my tests didn't
catch the bug.

I wonder if it's just Russian cyrillic encoding, or if it's true for all
non-latin based alphabets...
Anyway, please post an issue describing this, and assign it to me.
Attaching an example of a log message would help.
