This is caused by the fact that bibtex doesn't understand UTF-8 at all
(it is only able to do something useful with byte encodings). I have
no immediate solution for you, the best advice I can offer right now is
for you to manually fix the bbl file after running bibtex.

The whole database is converted in one go, and there is never a need to
re-run bibtex unless when you delete the bbl by accident, so this is
a single (laborious) step (under the assumption that the bib file is
finished already). A long-term solution will depend on a more modern
bib database processor (like J.M. Hufflen's mlbibtex).

Best wishes,
Taco
