Did you manage to resolve the char encoding issues with generic, i18n'd
pages in MoinMoin?

FC's apache defaults to utf-8 encoded pages, but the generic
internationalized pages in MoinMoin are latin1 encoded.

This for example shows in the "help pages" if using "de" or "fr" as
preferred languages.

An actual example of a server exposing this issue:

In both cases, the server claims to be sending utf-8, while the contents
is latin1.
