Default Long unicode strings breaking posts: resolved

Some of you have noticed that pasting long strings of unicode (such as Japanese) into posts can break them. This is a bug in vBulletin's word wrapping code. Specifically, the regex that inserts spaces into post text in intervals fails to account for UTF-8 encoding. The fix was actually rather simple -- adding the "u" expression pattern modifier.

More details here:

Posts with heavy Japanese text should show up properly now. If you notice posts that are still broken, link them here so I can purge them from vBulletin's post cache.
