There is nothing strange and this does not depend on the distro you are using.
The fork does not handle UTF-8 correctly.
BTW: the whole dispute with Debian started with an attempt from a Debian
paketizer to make me integrate a non-working UTF-8 patch into mkisofs in May
2004. This patch was full of bugs and even if it did have no bugs, it would
only handle 50% of the cases that need support for UTF-8.
This broken patch is still in the fork, but in Summer 2006 I did implement
working and complete UTF-8 support for mkisofs.
There is however no cdrtools at Sourceforge, cdrtools is at Berlios ;-)
