It had the UTF8 flag? Ah ok. My Windows machine (which has 5.6) is down at the moment, so I couldn't test. It's been a long time since I touched 5.6
Update: Now that it's back up,
>c:\progs\perl561\bin\perl -MDevel::Peek -wle"$x=chr(0x2660); print le
+ngth $x; Dump $x"

PV = 0x182013c "\342\231\240"\0

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
