I just upgraded to v2.5.0b2 and was surprised to find I'm still having the
same problem (see link above) years later! Is the "dirty workaround" shown
below still the best way to solve it?

See the unescaped open bracket there? I don't know enough about
encodings to say whether or not the bracket is specifically legal
there or not, but it doesn't look like legal HTML to me. My
understanding is that the wilma_striphtml program requires legal HTML
for correct operation.
It is a complicated problem, and I cannot say what should be the right
solution.
However, I can show you a dirty workaround.
The following patch will set MSB of Japanese characters, and strip
ESC$B & ESC(B. This is called EUC-JP character encoding. In this way,
Japanese characters will not affect wilma.
