Kiten search results

2) When I shorten the search string to only the first character (���), Kiten
finds some results but lots of Japanese characters are rendered wrong. (No
comparison needed this time). Note that the wrong rendering appears only in the
result list. When I run Kiten with LC_ALL=ja_JP.utf8 locale, Japanese
characters in the UI will be rendered correctly (except for the search result
list which will show the same garbage).
