Yeah. We may have to trick here. 

The easiest solution is that you provide your patch about names to Marek,
and report that the encoding needs love too. You may get him fix his
package.

If it doesn't work, as you said, we can force the encoding to iso for now.
That's crude but effective as long as it's possible.

You may consider patching that part of the html generator, if it's not too
long. 

Or we may stop generating html. What a pitty.

This is a very new feature. Which version of perl do you use?
