Well, it seems it completely borked on Russian characters. I went ahead
and tried to submit a request using Alexander (in russian), and it
seemed to take the submission, run the tests, and then die (I never got
success or failure).

Anyway, it just means that pqm needs to be updated to support unicode
better. It was written on top of Arch, which never really supported it
anyway.
