The current regression test suite tests strings containing embedded NULL's 
(and yes with UTF8 and ICU), so it certainly should work OK.  BTW if your 
program is "crashing" it's because you're not catching the thrown exception. 
If think it's a bug please provide the UTF-8 sequence that causes the 
failure so I have something to debug.
