interesting... I can access the site on Firefox 2.x in OpenSuSE 10.2 but I get other codes back:

martin@styx:~> echo $LANG en_US.UTF-8
...is UTF-8 buggy? :o)
It seems the codes depend on the lang setting. I also get the same as you with en_US.UTF-8.
Anyway, as for your question... I don't thing host or ping or dig are buggy; they just don't know how to handle these international characters, I guess...
But somehow it does know? I mean, it tries to translate to escapes. I think it should work, anyhow. Now, if somebody can try in opensuse 10.3... - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
