yep, that's the problem. I've seen this with Perl 5.10 both on Debian Squeeze and on Solaris 11 (Sparc), so it is not operating system related. BTW, in December I could pin the problem down to the method OpenXPKI::read_file. There is already a suspicious comment about binmode and utf8, indicating a possible problem here. I spent several hours modifying this function, fiddling with UTF8 flags, binmode and so on - without any success. The raw file the method was reading was perfectly OK, but the data in $result was subject to a superfluous UTF8 encoding - which I could not strip away without potentially affecting other parts of the system.
