I have experimented to verify this.

I changed my real name in the user administration tool, and removed the
special nordic character.  After I did this, the bug disappeared.

Then I changed my real name back to the original.  Quarry still worked
fine.  But I noticed my real name was still without nordic characters in
the "new game" dialog in Quarry.

So I edited the .quarry file to include my real name, including the
nordic characters.  Now Quarry gave the "usual" error-message, and
reduced the .quarry file to zero bytes.


The good thing about this is that the reason for the problem is precisely 
located and defined.
The bad thing is that most languages have some special characters, and users 
with special characters in their names will wish to keep them.  Meaning this is 
a bug without any acceptable work-around.
