I’ve just updated (via bundle update) MM 3.3.7 to 3.3.8 (along with some other gems) and found a problem with encoding of UTF-8 characters in Sass-compiled CSS files and Uglified JS files. Extended UTF-8 characters are spit out as 2 ISO-Latin-1 letters. Before update all was OK. My CSS files start with @charset "utf-8";. JS files don’t declare encoding (AFAIK it’s not possible?).
Since the problem occurs both in JS and CSS files then I suspect that this is neither Sass nor Uglifier related problem, but maybe Sprockets problem? Anybody had this issue recently? UTF-8 characters get garbled in comments (both in CSS and JS) in a compiled site (middleman build). I use Sass in a normal way (all CSS assets have Sass sources) and Uglifier in atypical way, I guess. I just minify my custom JS without touching Bootstrap and jQuery sources.
Otherwise the compiled CSS and JS is fine, no changes other than garbled UTF-8 text in comments (I’m using SVN to verify changes before/after bundle update / middleman build).

sass (3.4.9) → 3.4.12
sprockets-sass (1.2.0) → 1.3.1
