No.

It looks like it's some of that UTF-8 stuff I quoted in my previous mail.
It was necessary to get UTF-8 encoding in 22, but isn't in 23.  (At
least if you have your LOCALE and such set the way I do.)

I'll see if I have to put any of it back, and report, but it looks
from a quick test like things are fine if I take it all out.

Thanks,
