So it's unlikely that anyone will care except for me, and I've already found a not-too-mangled way to avoid using the characters effected, but the characters for katakana "mu" and "i" are getting horribly mangled by the site. To whit:

ã‚µã‚¤ãƒˆ

(Should say sa-i-to, no spaces or other characters)

ã‚³ãƒŸãƒ¥ãƒ‹ãƒ†ã‚£

(should say ko-mi-xyu-ni-te-xi, no spaces or other characters).

Hm. Except that it just worked fine; I guess the problem only occurs in signatures.

"Hocus Pocus is a hot stud" using such characters?

Heh I can't help but translate that as "saucy monkey".

Pretty much what I was thinking. Specifically it was "cheeky monkey" (optimally said in Eddie Izzard's voice), but saucy and cheeky are close enough cousins.
