Re: [perl #109828] PerlIO::scalar does not handle UTF-8

Is there any word on this issue? I just hit this bug in reverse[1] and
while there is ample discussion about it being a problem I see the same
behavior under current blead. Is there a chance *at least* for a warning
to be added so that it lands in 5.18?

Cheers
