Puppet users - Feb 2013 - non-US-ASCII charapters in manifests (windows & puppet 3.1)

Puppet 3.1 is released, but problem not fixed. Puppet 3.0 and 2.x don''t
test manifest for non-ASCII and write uncorrect characters to system (like 
file names, folders, files and other) . But now Puppet 3.1 test manifest 
and
stop.<https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-aRLPbc_OYbA/UQY4w9ivc6I/AAAAAAAAACU/nqH8b5IRbgI/s1600/puppet%2B3.1b2.png>

I think you are running into https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/17010.
The win32-dir gem we are using to return the COMMON_APPDATA directory
returns a ruby string in UTF-16LE, which for some reason File.join does not
allow. It assumes it is always passed UTF-8 strings, or at least ASCII
compatible. To confirm this is the problem, try

  require ''win32-dir''
  File.join(Dir::COMMON_APPDATA, ''b'')

If you''re on ruby 1.9, you could patch lib/puppet/util/run_mode.rb,
line
78, to read:

   [Dir::COMMON_APPDATA.encode(''UTF-8''),
"PuppetLabs", "puppet"] + extra

Maybe, there are some issuses about non-ASCII.

unpack ruby ZIP into c:/program files/Puppet Labs/Puppet/sys/ruby/lib/ruby 
but it didn''t work.
