Comment (by guest):
GHC now always uses UTF-8 for the output of `ghc-pkg dump`, and the input
to `ghc-pkg register` and `ghc-pkg update`.

* Use UTF-8 explicitly for InstalledPackageInfo
So ghc-pkg register/update takes input in UTF-8, and ghc-pkg dump
outputs in UTF-8. Textual package config files in the package DB are
assumed to be in UTF-8.
M ./utils/ghc-pkg/Main.hs -7 +26

This patch will be merged into 6.12.1.
Also the double-free error reported above is fixed.
