It turned out then that I had not installed iconv (which was declared as optional IIRC). Under MinGW, iconv is necessary to read/write the defaults database, because it provides the needed UTF-8 encoding.
I think this was true of the 5.1 release, but it is no longer the case with the current (5.2) release. In the current code, the bug writing the data is fixed (so it writes ascii as it should), and there is built-in support for utf-8 anyway.
