this reminds me to the perl 5.8 / utf-8 problem described in :
http://spamassassin.apache.org/dist/INSTALL

Note for Perl 5.8 Users (incl Red Hat 8)
----------------------------------------

Perl 5.8 now uses Unicode internally by default, which causes trouble for
SpamAssassin (and almost all other reasonably complex pieces of perl
code!).
[...]

Setting the LANG environment variable before any invocation of
SpamAssassin sometimes seems to help fix it, like so:
  export LANG=en_US

dont blame me, if i'm wrong, just an idea :)

regards,
Matthias
