[Dovecot] Sieve 1.1.2 -> special chars

I'm unable to use local chars in vacation/auto replies with sieve. .dovecot.sieve.err gives the same error as when there's a parse error.

Example of error: line 25: string 'æ ø å ö ä ü é á. ':

My dovecot is v. 1.1b5 and sieve is v. 1.1.2.

This issue was also present with dovecot 1.0.x

Is there a way around this?
