Just talked to avahi upstream. The last avahi does validate if services are valid UTF-8 (and dbus will kick you of the bus if it isn't anyway). So the data avahi-discovery gets should be valid UTF-8.. It would be interesting to see which service name causes this. Could you send the output of avahi-browse -a?
