I believe Frederik loaded the 0.5 database from the broken version
of planet last week, so it will probably contain nonsense.

All tables should have a collation of utf8_general_ci however if
you have created the database correctly. If that is not the case then
you are going to have a problem

There is a separate problem with the database where (we think) all
the data is double-encoded but that shouldn't be affecting you here.
