Summary: crash when loading a symbol or a schematic with accent

Initial Comment:
When I add some french text with accentuated letters
(like 'é') in gschem (schematic or component), it allow
me to save the file, but when a reload the file, gschem
may crash.

Linux 2.6.12-12mdk (Mandriva)
i686 Pentium II (Deschutes)

gEDA compiled from CD geda-install-20060907.iso

Crash log :

/usr/local/share/geda/bin/gschem
gEDA/gschem version 20060906
gEDA/gschem n'est accompagné d'ABSOLUMENT AUCUNE GARANTIE.
Ceci est un logiciel libre et vous êtes invité à le
redistribuer en respectant
certaines obligations ; pour plus de détails reportez
vous au fichier COPYING.


(process:6703): Gtk-CRITICAL (recursed) **:
gtk_text_buffer_emit_insert: assertion `g_utf8_validate
(text, len, NULL)' failed
aborting...
zsh: abort      /usr/local/share/geda/bin/gschem


Note : there is also an error above (same sort of
problem I think)

We should read :

"
gEDA/gschem n'est accompagné d'ABSOLUMENT AUCUNE GARANTIE.
Ceci est un logiciel libre et vous êtes invité à  le
redistribuer en respectant
certaines obligations ; pour plus de détails reportez
vous au fichier COPYING.
"

Find attached a symbol which when selected in the
device selector makes gschem crash.

To solve the crash in this file, it's enough to remove
the strange characters inside.

We should read : "Cette chaîne va faire crasher gEDA !"
and not "Cette chaîne va faire crasher gEDA !"

Thanks for your excellent work!
