I certainly don't trust PoSix abominations like [:alnum:], really, any
site that uses non-ascii characters in an URL is broken as far as I'm
concerned.

Ah, interesting, now I see what you mean, I guess I had assumed the
whole world had moved on to 'always-assume-utf-8' :)

Thanks for pointing this out, I'll fix it. (Although I don't think the
current arrangement breaks anything other than the w3c validator, and
web browsers seem to handle it fine, but hey, it is trivial to fix,
so...)
