[Bug 3062] New: SpamAssassin should be "locale safe"

http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3062

           Summary: SpamAssassin should be "locale safe"
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: SVN Trunk (Latest Devel Version)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Libraries
        AssignedTo: spamassassin-dev@incubator.apache.org
        ReportedBy: spamassassin-contrib@msquadrat.de


Currently we use stuff like \w at several places. The problem with this is 
that it changes SA's behaviour if it runs under different locales than C. 
 
Example: 
  "���" =~ /\w/ 
is false for LANG=C 
is true  for LANG=de 
 
SA's behaviour should be constant, no matter under which locale it happens to 
run. The best way to achieve this is if it was possible to force utf8 all over 
the place. But don't ask me how to do that ;-)
