Since Monotouch 1.4 (maybe also earlier) International Characters don't show up
in strings.

Example: Console.Writeline("ä ö ü ß Ö Ä Ü"); Result-> ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ??
Same with Searchbar.Text, if User enters special Characters Searchbar.Text only
contains ??
Also found in MKPlacemarks and other Monotouch objects.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Console.Writeline("ä ö ü ß Ö Ä Ü");
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ??

Expected Results:  
ä ö ü ß Ö Ä Ü

Through this problem Monotouch can't be used anymore in Germany maybe also not
in other Countries!!!
