It's correct later in the file in the changelog entry for 1:3.2.1-36, but
the entry for 1:3.2.2-1 is wrong.  Here's the od -bc output:

0001520 157 156 054 040 164 150 141 156 153 163 040 114 165 101 055 163
          o   n   ,       t   h   a   n   k   s       L   u   A   -   s
0001540 141 040 114 157 165 162 145 156 101 247 157 040 050 103 154 157
          a       L   o   u   r   e   n   A 247   o       (   C   l   o

The correct sequence should be:

windlord:~> echo -n 'Luísa Lourenço' | od -bc
0000000 114 165 303 255 163 141 040 114 157 165 162 145 156 303 247 157
          L   u 303 255   s   a       L   o   u   r   e   n 303 247   o

This looks like the sort of damage that one gets when cutting and pasting
into an xterm that isn't in a UTF-8 locale or something similar.
