Did your problems disappear after disabling the function overloading? I 
don't think it's possible to make TYPO3 work with it, but maybe it can 
be detected and disabled automatically. If not maybe setting the default 
mbstring charset to windows-1252 is as good as disabling. All changes 
for the runtime of the script, of course.

Well, Kasper didn't want to rely on mbstring when developing the utf-8 
support for TYPO3. The module wasn't so widespread then.
