During the attempt at stabilisation in bug #131637 Matthias Langer spotted two issues with the current package which the attached patch fixes. Number one: style is overly lax with arg processing, which can be confusing for users. There is a simple fix attached, and upstream has been contacted. Number two: the encoding of the German support file can cause problems for some users. The attached patch just uses iconv to convert it to UTF-8 from the ISO-8859 legacy format. Neither issue deserve a revision bump in my opinion. Although both issues also affect the current stable I'd prefer to leave it is as, at any rate with these bugs fixed a newer version should be stable soon enough.

Seemant, Please include a big thanks to Matthias Langer in your Changelog comment, he spotted both bugs and I'd never have figured out the encoding thing without his help. James
