[Freeassociation-devel] Problems with un-escaped characters in TZID

[Wilfried Goesgens]

hm, It seems as if my reply was aten:  

Brad, I think its patch messing up the utf8 code.  

Could you please move the utf-8 sequences in its own file, and load it
instead of having it inline?  

I don't think all compilers are to be utf-8 safe.
