Does version 1.1.1 support Hebrew? (Y/N?)

The previous installation Mantis 1.1.0a2 worked ok with Hebrew text.
I installed the new Mantis 1.1.1 and I did this on the same php server & My SQL database.
Hebrew does not work: after I submit a new bug w/Summary or Description in Hebrew when I re-view the bug I get question marks instead of Hebrew letters.
Can anyone help? Is this a regression in Mantis 1.1.1 or something that I do the wrong.
:?

:D
1) I found the answer in the Mantis Manual.Configuration.Language notes #386 and #388
2) which is:
  • Use phpAdmin to change the collation type for each relevant text column (summary, description, ...) from latin1_swedish_ci to utf8_unicode_ci.
    Change also the collation type for the relevant tables (matis_bug_table, mantis_bug_text_table, ...)
