Not being a programmer but in linked qt4 doc I read:

--
If a codec has been set using QTextCodec::setCodecForCStrings(), it is used to
convert Unicode to 8-bit char; otherwise this function does the same as
toLatin1().
--

This seems it's happening - instead of to ASCII it converts chars to Latin1
(and thus leave some characters illegal in IPTC).

My RAW converter RawThepraee crashes because of illegal chars present in IPTC
fields... Hope to see this resolved somehow.
