[wpa_supplicant] essid with non-ascii characters

Hello!
I'm using version 0.7.3-5 of wpa_supplicant (1.0 is not yet available
in 'core' repository of Arch linux at the moment) and I have
unsuccessfully tried to connect to a public wifi spot whose essid
(correctly detected by 'iwlist wlan0 scan') was "Wifi Ch?teau
d'Olonne". I haven't seen anything concerning essid with non-ascii
characters in the change-log of 1.0 thus I guess that the problem is
unsolved yet.
Here is my locale and the config file I created for this wifi spot.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
$ echo $LANG
fr_FR.UTF-8
$ cat /etc/wifi.conf
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
# Plaintext connection (no WPA, no IEEE 802.1X)
network={
ssid="Wifi Ch?teau d'Olonne"
key_mgmt=NONE
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
And below is the output of the corresponding wpa_supplicant command
(which I have interrupted after a moment). As one can see, "Wifi
Ch?teau d'Olonne" has been changed to "Wifi Ch_teau d'Olonne".
Question: Is that problem already known? Should I report a bug for it?
Regards,
LuX
