I think the problem is that the PC you tried the build on doesn't have 
utf8 as its default encoding, so I need to enforce that in the script. 
This would need to apply upstream too so I think the best way is to 
change mscript.py with the attached patch. Would you be able to test 
that for me before I upload a new version?
