Comment (by DJPaul):

 In trunk and branch, I fixed bug #1445 where bbPress would install some of
 its tables with the latin1 charset in error (on new installs, not
 upgrades). Therefore, trying to recreate this on a new install of trunk or
 1.2.8, *not* 1.2.7, may not trigger the error, if the problems are related
 and if the invalid RSS items are coming from the Forums tables. I think
 this bug should be tested on 1.2.7.

 p.s. I believe that html_entity_decode does not work correctly UTF-8 for
 PHP versions < 5, it will throw "cannot yet handle MBCS in
 html_entity_decode" warnings; http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=25670. I
 think the trick is to wrap the output of html_entity_decode in
 utf8_encode. However, this needs confirming on a PHP4 installation.
