Indeed, you're right, my bad. For reference: J.W. Zondag reported on issue1069:

'''
Using Windows Vista Ultimate + SP1 (EN)

Checked things out.
Was using PowerShell as shell.
Creating .hgignore with:
> "syntax: glob" > .hgstatus
resulted in a Unicode encoded file
which is apparently not being read correctly by "hg status"

Setting .hgignore to ANSI or UTF-8 makes 'hg status' work fine, so if using an
unicode .hgignore file is a no no, then im sorry for raising this issue.

I closed the issue as resolved.
