I have helped work on a fix for this on 4.0 (which supports the
javax.servlet.ServletRequest.setCharacterEncoding() method). Tomcat 3.x
does not support the new servlet 2.3 methods, so I did not look at fixing
it in Tomcat.
However, I have an easy to use object (included) which is able to process
the mangled string and convert it to the encoding that you specify.
This method will work for all Strings parsed into Tomcat (or other web
servers).
