It certainly would be! No string that RB creates from scratch, like this, should have a nil encoding, since of course RB can (nay, must) know the encoding of the string it's created. However, I can't reproduce this bug -- a quick test in the 2006R4 IDE on OS X showed that Format returned a string with an encoding defined as UTF-8 for me.
