well, it shouldn't.

In perl, strings are already utf8, internally. If TT was to do
encoding, they would be double-encoded.

so what you have to do is get that u-with-umlaut *into* perl as a utf8
encoded string. which is a combination of whatever your editor is
doing, and the utf8 pragma.

strange that you still get the problem when you use the \x notation though.

have you tried just writing a test script and outputting the string
into a utf8-aware terminal?
