zby, you're exactly right: something bad happens to the last byte. I need to fix that.

yosefm said that mysql still doen't support unicode - well, the 4.1.0-alpha boasts 'extensive unicode support'. I have managed to store utf-8 data, and retrieve it, and search for unicode characters via the command line client.

if anyone's intrested in this: I keep a journal on my adventures with mysql + perl + unicode on the web

By the way I did work with Postgres, perl and unicode. It mainly works, but collating is implemented for few scripts (at least it was last autumn).

Of course, I use production versions only. Have fun with unicode...
