Thanks for tracking this down. The portion of the patches using MultiByte::convert_encoding() have been applied to the Drupal importer. The portion of the patches telling MySQL what encoding we expect results from it in are more applicable to opening the connection to begin with, so it has been applied to the Habari core code. See https://trac.habariproject.org/habari/changeset/4031.
