Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 I've tested the plugin on a clean !WordPress installation, and author
 pages seem to work fine with Arabic and Cyrillic usernames.

 Perhaps BuddyPress has more limitations on username. I've tried to create
 a user with Cyrillic username in BuddyPress 1.5-rc-1, and I got 400 Bad
 Request on the member page.

 At this point, it's a BuddyPress issue, which should be reported on
 http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/.
