I have finally tracked down the problem: I seem to have been bitten by a  
change in zope.formlib 4.1.

There are two solutions: either extend a form's update method with the  
something like the following:

    def update(self):
	from Products.Five.browser.decode import processInputs
	from ZPublisher import HTTPRequest
         # XXX: if we don't set default_encoding explicitly, main_template  
might
         #      set a different charset
         self.request.RESPONSE.setHeader('Content-Type',
             'text/html; charset=%s' % HTTPRequest.default_encoding)
         # BBB: for Zope < 2.14
         if not getattr(self.request, 'postProcessInputs', False):
             processInputs(self.request, [HTTPRequest.default_encoding])
         super(_EditFormMixin, self).update()

Or, more simply, base forms on those provided by five.formlib.formbase

Thanks to yuppie for fixing this in the CMF.

I can confirm that this also works with Internet Explorer.
