Phil Copeland @ redhat pointed me at this bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=72752
Seems that there are a number of issues (i'm going to verify & patch his
fixes right now).
The other he mentions is mbstring seems to cause problems. I have
experienced this too.
Guys, i don't want to be mean or sound racist or anything else you throw at
me.
But mbstring really isn't a core module, and very few people will require
kr/zh/ru style encoding.
I vote to remove mbstring as a default module.
And for those who say that i could just disable it -- well, the converse is
true. Let us STOP burdening default builds with crap that is unlikely to be
used.
