 * WordPress v1.5 fixes the trackback encoding problem between blogs with distinct
   charsets, but doesn’t fix the same problem with pingbacks.
    I’ve hacked xmlrpc.
   php to solves that problem. You can download the fixed file from [here](http://iozblog.ionosfera.com/archives/2005/04/08/wordpress_pingback_encoding_fix/)

 * Thanks for going to the effort, but there is an official bug report with an official
   patch here: [http://mosquito.wordpress.org/view.php?id=929](http://mosquito.wordpress.org/view.php?id=929)
 * This issue will be corrected in WP v1.5.1

 * I think that bug is not the same problem.
    My fix solves the encoding problem
   on the pingback comments of a post, not in RSS.
