Comment(by otto at kolsi dot fi):

 [20244] did not fix this, ticket should be re-opened (don't have
 permissions to do so).

 Root of the problem seems to be the fact that FeedWriter.php does HTML
 entity encoding for the RSS data. RSS data is in fact XML and thus most of
 the HTML entities do not work but break the XML (since without additional
 declarations, XML can contain only 5 entities).

 Attached patch removes HTML-entity encoding and also removes previous
 UTF-8/URL -decode calls (which now need to be removed when entities are
 not used). With this applied, non-ascii characters work both in program
 titles and descriptions.
