Public bug reported:

Please note this only seems to effect PHP running on Windows, not
Ubuntu.

In the following configuration:
Windows Server 2008 R2
IIS 7
Postgresql 9.1.4
PHP 5.3.13
Mahara 1.5.1

The registration link ("Hi Chéese, Thank you for registering an account
on Mahara. Please follow this link to complete the signup process: ...")
won't work if the user has a diacritic in their name.

Clicking the link results in "A nonrecoverable error occured. This
probably means you have encountered a bug in the system"

The email address confirmation message ("Hi Chéese, Thank you for
registering an account on Mahara. Please select the following link to
confirm your email address. The ...") and the message sent to the
administrator to approve the registration work perfectly.

Attached is a relevant snippet from the PHP error log.
