Well, the '£' works for me when I tested. The account password has '£' in it,
entered using the windows character map. curl --ntlm worked with this
password when I cut and pasted the '£' from your email.

I still don't know how to type a '£' on my US-style keyboard!

I think all the 8 bit characters (if you can type them) will be ok with just
the simple '0' stuffing - full unicode (16 bit) will certainly be harder, but
I would expect there to be OS libraries to help there (lgpl permitting). I'll
dig on this later.
