I have run into a problem, and now I can reproduce it most of the time (4.1.2, 4.1.3 & SVN), but not always.
If I have UTF-8 characters in personal data of indi, and after editing those data the GEDCOM file is become corrupted.
Here is my correct GEDCOM record (1 child and 2 parents & 1 family):

It seems to me that it overwrites existing other gedcom data & not inserting it.
Just my guess (without checking the source): Maybe PGV wrongly calculates the length of an indi record because UTF-8 characters, and the relative position of entries are also miscalculated?
Thanks.
