What characters?
è ò à ù ?
That would be è ò à ù in utf8 (if one reads the utf8 as latin1).

I this case I suspect that perl encodes the string as utf8 and your latin1
declaration is wrong.
Sorry, I don't know much about perl 5.8 but AFAIK unicode support has been
enhanced and there are some problems with that.
If I was you, I would read about unicode, strings and perl 5.8.

AFAIK no. And if my suspicion is right, it would not help anyway.
