I've attached a patch that I think address this, as well as
a test file that passes with the patch.  (All the other test
files in threads::shared pass, too.)

However, I profess great ignorance in the proper handling of
UTF-8.  I would be grateful for help from anyone familiar
with UTF-8 stuff to advise me if further changes are needed.
Thanks.
