It's only an EN DASH, U+2013 (dec 8211, oct 20023). There are only a
few encodings that contain it:
CP1250
CP1251
CP1252
NeXT
Mac-Greek
Mac-Cyrillic
Mac-Roman
Adobe Standard Encoding
(not complete, I presume). This character has in UTF-8 a
representation of 0xE2 0x80 0x92, three bytes. It seems that somehow
each of this three bytes is converted into some three byte
representation. A malfunction in GNOME? (At least I had once such
problems in Fedora Core 1.)
Can you try to paste into an UTF-8 encoding buffer? Its mode-line
should start with -u: (or -U: in GNU Emacs 23.0.0).
