[Koha-devel] UTF-8 and Koha

I know there's been a little traffic on the list before about this, but I
can't find it now.

I'm working on installing Koha 2.0.0 on RedHat Enterprise Linux (and
documenting the process), and I'm running into utf-8 problems. 
Specifically, when I try to do a z3950 search, the log file fills up with
"Malformed UTF-8 character" messages.  (Just a note, when I installed Koha
and was asked if the terminal supports iso 8859-1, I answered 'no.')

I tried changing the syntax for LOC in the z3950servers table to
"UNIMARC," which produced a "still 1 requests to go" message in Koha that
never went away (and didn't produce a log).

Can anyone suggest some other things to try?  Is this utf-8 stuff going to
be a problem elsewhere in Koha?
