Comment (by aloon):

 Thank you for your quick reply. Concerning the database, the webhost
 serving my weblog is using MySQL 5.0.22, and currently phpMyAdmin says:
 MySQL charset: UTF-8 Unicode (utf8), and MySQL connection collation:
 utf8_unicode_ci. AFAIK I never changed those settings, so I'm not sure if
 my database wasn't UTF-8 all along? However, I do remember migrating from
 another webhost, and importing a backup of the database in my new
 WordPress installation on my new webhost. I'm not sure if the database was
 UTF-8 during it's time at my old webhost, so maybe the cause could lie
 there?

 So it seems that this happened just once, and I won't encounter this
 during future upgrades? And if this is a database issue, it's not a bug in
 WordPress, am I correct? Shall we close this bug then?
