What character set should the characters be drawn from used in the meta information of a Mercurial change set (like the -u user name and -m message)? Plain 7-bit ASCII, ISO 8859-1, full Unicode?

I noticed that for example Caolán's name is garbled (with a "?") both in the web front end (e.g., <http://hg.services.openoffice.org/cws/cmcfixes65/rev/3ee4cb3a17dd>, XHTML marked as '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ascii"?>') and the mails sent to [email protected] (which are marked as "content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii").

(By the way, [email protected] is missing from the list of general mailing lists at <http://www.openoffice.org/mail_list.html>.)
