What's happening here is that the program considers the string is in iso-8859-1 and tries to autoconvert to utf-8. 
What should happen is KDE/QT/etc should not try to be smart and consider that the string is the UTF-8 encoding.

To verify

$ echo Antikörper | iconv -f iso-8859-1 -t utf-8
Antikörper
$

If you guys use Kubuntu/KDE, you should make a real effort to fix these
things. Else, the whole KDE effort crambles on localisation issues.
