The following came in from an email to infrastructure:

first upload to attachment to http://trunk.foswiki.org/Main/LieVen worked fine
second attachment, with choosing "show link to file" created the message in the attached file.
a third try blew away the entire page, deleting any content and attachments.
Greetings, Lieven.

Currently trunk.foswiki.org is still running with ISO-8859-1 charset, as it has to share data with the foswiki.org 1.1.9 site. We will eventually work on converting everything to utf8 once foswiki.org is upgraded. Some of these errors are only visible because we run with debug ASSERTs enabled, which converts warnings to errors. Item13424 was such a case. Foswiki appears to run normally provided that ASSERTs are disabled. I'm more concerned though that this resulted in a complete loss of the target topic. So it still needs some investigation.

George is right, there's no way to certain Klingon characters in iso-8859-1
