Another example is listed in the bug report at: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&group_id=93107&atid=603138&aid=2989218 - #802.11n becomes Page{[[Page#IEEE 802n]]} (because \x11 is a non-printable character). however: I think we can might be able to work around these two problems as only characters outside of ASCII are escaped /and/ it has to be a correct UTF-8 string. Again: check the mediawiki source.
