Comment:

 I can reproduce this.

 I am not convinced by the fix. urldecoding in get_page_uri ensures that
 the:

 {{{a-test-page-%c3%b8%c3%a6a}}} is converted to {{{a-test-
 page-\xc3\xb8\xc3\xa6a}}}

 This means we get the UTF8 chars in the browser source.

 wp_redirect needs a url encoded sanitised link though and strips these
 chars out.

 I will attach what I think is a better fix.


 Testing done with PHP 5.2.4_pre200708051230-pl2-gentoo with Suhosin-Patch
 0.9.6.2
