This should be fixed now. In case other teams are using the same
source of thesaurus than us, the encoding problem was already in the
file downloaded from:

http://openthes-es.berlios.de/

(it has equivalent URLs for English and German). As the file came
wrong, and I'm new with this matters, I thought it was normal. It
should be fixed now (I have a PHP script that fixes that and other
problems with the built files in that site).

The new files have been uploaded again to:

Thank you for reporting this.
