#1010 Encoding is dropped, when I paste non-latin characters

[Anonymous]

My file has the following lines in the beginning
#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: windows-1251 -*-

It has that encoding indeed (windows-1251).

I use Ubuntu 9.10, Eclipse Galileo (3.5) with all updates and Pydev 1.5.0.1251989166

When I copy a string with cyrillic characters and paste it to the same file, these characters are converted to something, which eclipse represents as squares with hexadecimal code inside.
When I paste this string somewhere outside eclipse, it is pasted OK.
When I paste a string to PyDev, copied to the clipboard somethere outside eclipse, it is also pasted ok.
When I copy a string with cyrillic characters in another Eclipse window (CDT) and paste it to PyDev's window, it is again converted to squares with hex codes.

I have attached the screenshot. Comments about the string origins are followed by the pasted string.
