[Bug 761386] Re: Unkown exception with broken encoding

[Steve Langasek]

Michael, could you provide a test case for this SRU bug?  It's been
pending verification for nearly a month; I could switch to a non-ascii
locale for testing, but I don't know how to trigger the dbus exceptions
that are required in order to trigger the problem.
