Comment:

 The template for the RSS feed is this one:
 http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-includes/feed-rss2.php

 the description element uses [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk
 /wp-includes/feed.php#L168 the_excerpt_rss()] which ultimately uses
 [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-
 includes/formatting.php#L1879 wp_trim_excerpt] to generate the excerpt.

 That looks multi-byte safe to me, as it's only splitting on "\r\n\t "..
 I've not tested anything here, just traced it for you
