Fixed in r72 on the 0.3 branch. Quite an appalling bug: for some mad reason I'd
changed a couple of variable declarations from unsigned char to plain char, 
which
meant that characters beyond 127 were sign-extended when converting them to 
int. More
worryingly though, this had been broken for a long time and I never noticed.

Excellent, thanx for the quick fix!  Is there a binary available, or do I need 
to 
compile from source?

I just compiled r74 but I'm still experiencing the same behaviour.

Additionally, on compile, I received the following errors (not sure if they are 
expected):

Make sure you checked out branches/0.3 rather than trunk. I'll probably release 
0.3.1
later today.

I'd reproduced the problem and checked the fix with the following command:
/bin/echo -e \\0273\\0267

And yep, those make messages are expected, because the dependency files are 
created
automatically when first compiling. Hints on how to get rid of them would be 
appreciated.

Ah, I compiled trunk, not the branch.  I've now compiled the 0.3 branch and it 
works 
like a charm!

Thanx again for the quick fix!

You're welcome, and thanks for verifying. This one was just too embarrassing to 
leave
it hanging around for long. :)
