UTF-8 characters are displayed all broken. The apache log file complains like the below.

compare: Parsing of undecoded UTF-8 will give garbage when decoding entities at /var/www/uvr/htdocs/twiki/lib/TWiki/Contrib/CompareRevisionAddOn/Compare.pm line 316.

I had to modify the line like below to use decode_utf8() function and it gets rid of garbled international characters as well as parse warnings in the log.

$tree->parse(decode_utf8($text));

use Encode; is also required for this function.

A diff is attached below.
