metasploit2.4 with buggy UTF-8 in Perl 5.8.0 ?

[hdm at metasploit.com (H D Moore)]

It sounds like you installed a new version of Perl, but still have the old 
one at /usr/bin/perl. Make sure that the perl interpreter 
at /usr/bin/perl is the new one:

$ /usr/bin/perl -V

You can run the new interpreter manually:

$ perl msfconsole.pl

This command should show /usr/bin/perl:
$ which perl 

-HD
