    No problem here; must be something with you guys.  Kernel 
problem?  Maybe.  Regardless, I don't think this (security?) risk is 
even vaguely exploitable.

[mike@sheep]:~ $ uname -a
FreeBSD sheep.coetus.net 4.4-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE 
#0: Tue Sep 18 11:57:08 PDT 2001

[mike@sheep]:~ $ perl -e 'print "\x9E\x9bc"'
ž›c[mike@sheep]:~ $ 
[mike@sheep]:~ $

From what I see, I think it's a problem with your console.  SSHing in 
or sitting at my console, I don't get anything.

Best of luck figuring this out,
Mike.
