Package: xmobar
Version: 0.9.2-2
Severity: normal

When script sent non-ASCII char to xmobar with Com plugin, xmobar freezes.

Steps to reproduce:
~/.xmobarrc
Config { font = "-misc-fixed-*-*-*-*-10-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
       , bgColor = "black"
       , fgColor = "grey"
       , position = Static { xpos = 0, ypos = 0, width = 1120, height = 16 }
       , lowerOnStart = True
       , commands = [
            , Run Com "script.sh" [] "thrm" 10
       ]
       , sepChar = "%"
       , template = "%thrm%"
       }

Sample script.sh should print non-ASCII chars

Also on some chars(ex. degree sign) xmobar doesn't hangup, but instead shows 
question marks like if char has wrong encoding. However if there is any cyrillic
symbol in script's output, xmobar will crash at startup or will hang if such
char appeared after some time of proper work.

Version 0.9.2-1 of the package doesn't have this bug.
