This is what I get after compilling the bot with utf support:
Here is an example, my utf works great on urban dict:

That isn't required EXCEPT on FreeBSD because it fails to set environments correctly and requires all these switches to compile correctly. Rarely does anyone set these flags correctly when compiling so their environment IS utf-8, but their eggdrop THINKS it's iso8859-1. Commenting out that line above fixes this issue. But it is more of a hack than it is a fix. Compiling your bot correctly, and getting your environment and eggdrop to BOTH be utf-8 is what is expected. Anything less you're going to have to hack.
what exactly isn't required?
EDIT:
OK FIXED
This was needed ^

It covers an area of 410 km^2 (158 sq mi) and its coastline is roughly 123 km (76 mi) in length. The island is named after Zakynthos,
the son of a legendary Arcadian chief Dardanus. The name, like all similar names ending in -nthos, is

now the only thing it fails to do when the bot is UTF compilled, is
bolding
I guess the "No html to parse." and "Sorry, no search results found." is a matter of timeout from the server
but the most important thing is that if it does that for more than 3 or 4 times straight, the bot will ping timeout.. and then you have to restart it cause it will never come back. Any thoughts about this malfunction ?
