Comment:

 The character here is a 2-byte
 [http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/ba/index.htm masculine
 ordinal indicator], so #13590 and #21212 appear to be irrelevant.

 I could not reproduce the issue. My steps:
 1. Save these lines to a file encoded in UTF-8 and run it:
 {{{
 include 'wp-load.php';

 add_option( 'test', 'testºthis' );
 // echo get_option( 'test' );
 // delete_option( 'test' );
 }}}
 2. Comment out `add_option()` and uncomment `get_option()` (to make sure
 the result comes from the database and not from cache).
 3. The result is `testºthis`.
 4. Uncomment `delete_option()` to delete the option.

 If the string comes from a file in your case, make sure it's encoded in
 UTF-8. If that doesn't help, try inserting the same string with phpMyAdmin
 to see if the database charset is correct.
