{{{
import Data.Bytestring.Char8
unpack (pack "тест") == "тест"
-- False, should be True
Data.ByteString.Char8.length $ pack "тест"
-- 4, should be 8 (UTF-8). Library truncates more-than-8bit chars
}}}
I'm not sure if this library should assume UTF-8 for {en,de}coding, but
imho something has to be done about it.
