Comment:

 way bbPress deals with multibyte tags.

 I guess bbPress should encode the URIs with multibyte characters.  Some
 browsers automatically do so when they encounter non-encoded links but you
 should not expect this to all the other browsers.  "Should be:" in debug
 code should be encoded;-p

 Adding a line in <code>bb_repermalink)0</code> as shown below seems to be
 working so far but there may be a side effect .  Plus, I don't know what
 will happen in charsets other than utf-8.  I expect someone will fix this
 in more proper way.

 <code>bb_repermalink()</code> in file <code>bb-
 includes/functions.php</code>
 <blockquote><code>
 $domain = bb_get_option('domain');
 $domain = preg_replace('/^https?/', '', $domain);
 $check = preg_replace( '|^.*' . trim($domain, ' /' ) . '|', '',
 $permalink, 1 );
 $check = utf8_uri_encode($check); // add this line
 </code></blockquote>

 I hope this will help you.
