Prior to the patch, BBDB didn't have any coding-system handling beyond
whatever Emacs uses natively. I applied the patch because
(a) it didn't break my test setup
(b) as described by the contributor, it solved a problem
Not to cast aspersions on the original patch, but perhaps I was a
little hasty in applying it. Then again, that's what the CVS tree is
for; if the patch /is/ causing problems, then maybe I should remove it
again. I'm a bit vague on the whole area of coding-systems in Emacs,
so if anyone would like to suggest a proper way of handling this,
please do so.
Cheers,
Waider.
