WordPress v3.1 Has Character Encoding Issue With Title/Permalink?

I solved the problem. The permalink slug under the title of a new post would not let me tweak the slug for some reason. I was able to get rid of the unwanted ‘-‘ in the permalink by heading to the posts list and clicking quick edit to edit the slug over there.
