Terr!

Some time ago i posted a testcase for reproducing this bug. Did you
have time to test it?

I can add some symptoms more. I tested today with version 4.005-1 on
my Kubuntu laptop and i noticed following:
'š' becomes '�'
but when i add "use utf8" pragma and -C63 commandline switch, 'š' (and
'ž' and some more diacritics) just disappears.

I tried also with cyrillic characters and when proper output should be
'Скажи-ка мне пожалуйста...'
i got
'?????-?? ??? ??????????...'

So, there is still something wrong with unicode handling. I hope you
find time to figure out this bug.

TIA,

Kõike hääd,
