Hello Tamas and Dennis,

Indeed the C# bindings to not handle UTF8 characters correctly. I submitted
a bug report about it a couple of months ago with a reproducible case.

http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/4971

For the case that I submitted, the values for the fields in C-API GDAL are
coming out with correct utf8 strings, but the bindings just blindly copy the
utf8 chars into a UTF-16 strings. In order to work around the problem, I had
to pick out the relevant bits from the incorrect UTF-16 string, copy them to
a byte array, and re-encoded from UTF8 --> UTF16 correctly. It is all in the
ticket and I would happy to elaborate more if needed.
