Jouke Visser, a fellow Locale::Maketext user, pointed out that if I added a 
"use utf8" to Maketext.pm, it would fix Maketext's dealings with utf8 data.

Would anyone object if I went and added the "use utf8;" to the start of 
Maketext.pm?  Clearly the problem would be that users with Perls pre-dating 
utf8.pm wouldn't be able to use Maketext then.

I figure since this list has (I think) several people responsible for 
Maketext-based systems, it's a good place to talk about this.
