Swedish and Danish "ö" conflicts with eachother

Fri Jan 23 01:36:38 UTC 2015

It looks like something has mapped the 0x80..0xff octets to space.

That said the use non-ascii in the DNS is not well defined.  If you
add the UTF8 code point using \XXX\XXX where XXX are the decimal
values that make up the code point it should pass.  This keeps named.conf
as ascii but still allows the use of utf8 (or whatever coding you like)
in labels.
