Python segfaults when running the attached script on Python 2.4.2 Windows versions (tested with Win98SE HUN and WinXP HUN SP1). Linux version (Debian unstable) works fine, but cannot encode text to latin-2, since it decodes utf-8 BOM that cannot be encoded.
Logged In: YES user_id=33168 2.5 raises a SyntaxError: encoding problem: utf-8. 2.4 still crashes, this is probably a duplicate of a previous bug. Should research and backport the fix.
