 Uh, sorry ... I thought I'd replied to this.

 It solves the problem, but the commit messages says "uids" when it's
actually "username" ... and I _think_ sysadmins. would much prefer it if
we didn't quote here.
 Atm. we have stuff like:

yum-james-dwPkso/

...and after this patch we'll have stuff like:

yum-j%C2%B9-dwPkso/

...and mapping that to an actual user might be annoying. The traditional
solution to this kind of thing is to check all the bytes against
"abcd...xyz1234567890" and if there is a non-match use something like:

yum-[123]-dwPkso/

...where "123" is their uid. Another option is to use the uid all the
time.
 Any opinions?
