That's OK.

Besides the good points regarding charset below, I still need to
search&replace some things on the yanked region.

How can I test this?

I am using a pre-compiled GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (i686-pc-mingw32) of
2015-04-11 on LEG570.

Yes, I'd prefer when Emacs yanks the text in the correct charset
which it doesn't at my side.

Can somebody confirm this wrong behaviour?

How can I help?
