I've raised an issue on the mobiperl tracker, and attached my attempt at a fix, which is working for me but could probably be a lot neater because I don't really know Perl.

I found out about this while trying to fix a problem in a certain Mobipocket DRM removal script.
OK, will look at it when inspired. Is this an UTF-8 think är is this another extra data flag?
