Update: I debugged it with the Curriki guys, and the problem was that 
while the setup should have been UTF-8, mysql was not configured 
properly, so xwikircs and xwikirecyclebin were created with latin1, so 
their problem was indeed pure XWIKI-1736, nothing else.

The problem Ricardo had was a bit more complex, xwikircs was created 
with a shorter length for the xwr_patch field than it is specified now 
in the mapping file, because the length released with 1.2M1 was not 
specified at all, so Hibernate selected a length on its own.
