Last week I've gone through some manpages to extinguish all
appearances of $utf8 because it is heavily confusing. I'd recommend
s/utf8/perlstring/ or s/utf8/unicode/. A perlstring is not necessarily
in UTF8 and even if it is, you cannot directly access it anyway. Real,
accessible UTF8 would require a call to encode or some other means.
