fsck.com is actually running perl 5.6.1, as it's a debian stable (woody)
box.  Autrijus has said that he'll have a look at the issues with I18N
and 5.6.1 at some point, but it's definitely a low priority. At this
point, perl 5.8 has proven itself to be so much better at handling
utf-8 that I'd strongly encourage anyone who needs non-us-ascii support
in RT to run perl 5.8, rather than 5.6.1.
