If you use Text::CSV_XS, you can handle those characters if you turn on the 'binary' option, like this: 
use Text::CSV_XS;
$csv = Text::CSV->new({binary => 1});
...
$csv->parse($_);
@fields = $csv->fields();

Really nifty if you have to parse a CSV file with French text with accented characters and newlines in it...

    Just to be nit-picky, I think that is: 
    $csv = Text::CSV_XS->new({binary => 1});

    Those that pointed out that this would resolve working with text that has accents in it - I love you. I was going absolutely batty trying to deal with this text that I needed to convert to XML.
