 Stuff still have issues with encoding macrons in their captions as demonstrated by this new and exciting variation.

A lowercase a with macro. (ā) has been turned into an uppercase a with umlaut (Ä), a known failure mode for UTF to 8-bit. It gets better with a caricature of what appears to be a movable type for the capital letter S.
