 This patch from Sylvestre corrects the fact that the automagically
generated tasks files seem to choke on UTF-8 characters. Namely, in
this case it was on
http://cdd.alioth.debian.org/science/tasks/mathematics.html
for isabelle with the error 'DEBUG: Element pkgLongDesc of Isabelle
has Unicode problems'

 I do no know precisely whether the problem comes from the source
file (its encoding) or from the machinery. Just see this message as a
warning that something might be wrong.


I take it as bug report and try to fix this soon.  I admit that 75%
of all problems of the tasks pages are caused by encoding problems. :-((
Hope to get this settled at some time.

Thanks for reporting this
