Both are in order. As the maintainer is the general perl@, it would be
a little harder to make sure the maintainers and committers would all be
wary of the test-case though.

The a solution could be to submit a regression test upstream and
patch the port for the current version if a patch is known. If no patch
is known, then it would be best to mark it broken for users who want
unicode support (conditional BROKEN if a PORT_OPTIONS:MUTF8 maybe?).kk
