This is actually fixed by the following:

                        # Colons not allowed; replace by spaces
                        # Accented characters (non UTF-8) cause debconf to
                        # hang, so we fall back to the default if the name
                        # contains any weird characters.
                        long="$(grep -e "$grepexp" "$2/$ini" | cut -d '"' -f2 | 
\
                                tr ':' ' ' | LC_ALL=C grep -v '[^a-zA-Z0-9 
&()/_-]')"

That's however a bit poor, so cloning a wishlist bug. Phcoder suggested
on irc to use bootfont.bin to know the encoding, possibly simply through
a hash table of well-known font files.
