Yes. This will set the character set of the web pages to utf-8 instead
of us-ascii. This is not likely to be an issue with modern browsers,
but ...

Also, it will set the character set of list footers and such like to be
utf-8 and possibly to be base64 encoded (It will not transliterate the
character set of incoming posts). This will exacerbate the issues in
