[[this feature|todo/syslog_should_show_wiki_name]] made it so syslog doesn't work anymore if the site being logged has non-ASCII characters it in.
> I have improved a little the error handling in log_message() so that we see *something* when syslog fails, see the branch documented above. I can also confirm that reverting [[todo/syslog_should_show_wiki_name]] fixes the bug. Finally, I have a unit test that reproduces the problem in git, and a working [[!taglink patch]] for the bug, again in git.

For example, the [[plugins/notifyemail]] plugin will silently fail to send notifications if the pages contain unicode. The [[plugins/notifychanges]] plugin I am working on (in [[todo/option to send only the diff in notifyemail]]) seems to be working around the issue so far, but there's no telling which similar problem are out there.
