This is curious because the version numbers are automatically generated
by reportbug and he gives no hint that he is talking to a different
machine.
However I verified that the assertion is at line 334 in the source code
that the package was compiled from.

It's more because I was away at the time fetching my mother-in-law from
Israel, so this bug never got dealt with at all :-( But I do have
problems with these character set bugs, since it took a long time to
find a way to see these characters correctly.
I can confirm it does not happen in 7.4beta4
