The Perl and Python programs are not buggy, but they also don't
exhibit the behavior for me.  Although I'm still running a prerelease
1.7.0

Both also feature simpler ways to build the string, btw.

Perl:
    my $str = '0123456789' x 13;
    substr($str,127,1) = 'Ã';

Python:
    str = '0123456789' * 13
    str = str[:128] + 'Ã' + str[128:]
