LOL

That's the problematic commit and it has something to do with those
funky-looking bytes in the comment text. The problem _appears_ to be (but i
have not yet 100% confirmed this) that the data is latin-1 encoded. The
'lv' program will show it to me correctly if i tell lv that the text is
latin1, but shows it incorrectly if i tell it it's utf8. When i view it in
'less' it shows me each character as a single byte value of 0xf6. That is
bad. i'm not yet certain where the workaround belongs - i can't change the
data so i have to work around it.
