We should remove non-ASCII characters from the sources if they cause problems. If some non-ASCII is unproblematic (like the 'ä' in some copyright lines) on all supported compilers, that's fine to have, but mining log messages or comments with characters that are known to cause issues in the processing are a mindless waste of resources.
