You need to set __CF_USER_TEXT_ENCODING, see http:// lists.macromates.com/pipermail/textmate/2006-October/014381.html

[...] Or could it mean that 'pl' do not support utf-8 string at all?

I don’t think the variable above is really endorsed by Apple, I tried to get some clear answers at WWDC, but the only thing I really got out of it was, that __CF_USER_TEXT_ENCODING is only for legacy mac- whatever encodings -- but then, I don’t think they really understood what I was talking about (as they kept telling me how I should place my non-ASCII strings in a *.strings file ;) ).
