I have Google Desktop on one of the machine where the bad behavior
happens, but the other machine has none of the softwares in the BLODA
list.

Redirecting the output to a file, all the characters went there (131
bytes in UTF-8: 2 bytes for the "=E7" character and 1 byte for each of
the other characters).

I'm planning to go deeper in this problem on the next weekend. I
welcome tips on how to debug this. I've just downloaded Cygwin source
files in the case it would be good to have them (and maybe rebuild
Cygwin).

Thanks!
