UTC-8? You mean UTF-8?

Are you running Red Hat? Then your problems may be solved by ensuring the the environment is not forcing Unicode on Perl. If I remember correctly, this was done with:

LC_LANG=C
but please check out Google Groups for this.

    Yep, RedHat 8 and we tried all sorts of LC_LANG and related workarounds that worked for other people having seemingly similar problems. At this point, I don't care to try to solve the problem in 5.8.0. We'll just wait for 5.8.1.

      Then you might want to try out the latest (yesterday's) 5.8.1-tobe snapshot at Jarkko's place. If you still have problems with that release, there may be time still to fix it. If it solves the problem for you, you can be assured that 5.8.1 will most likely work for you also.
