Commit 61538 (build 1.0.0-2.16.201506290909) fixes the crashes on non-ASCII titles.

Because of the Ruby documentation on encoding (http://ruby-doc.org/core-1.9.3/Encoding.html) a different approach was used to set the default encoding. Instead of patching the sources, the interpreter is called with appropriate environment variables.

Please note, that after changing the encoding, existing dudles with non-ascii characters could theoretically show encoding errors (although I wasn't able to produce this problem).
