[Koha] Framework ACQ causes mutilated special characters

This was my first idea as well but unfortunately it didn't change the 
behavior. Also field 000 isn't shown in the section "Catalog details" 
when creating a new order. But it is shown when opening Koha menu 
"Administration > MARC frameworks > ACQ".

When opening the record with framework ACQ no field 000 is shown.

When opening the record with standard framework (what happens when 
showing the cataloging view directly after creating an order) field 000 
is there with correct value "a" in position 9.

But in both cases special characters in MARC 245 $a are mutilated.

May I ask you to export and send me the CSV file of framework ACQ you 
have created? Maybe there is some difference in our frameworks.

Best wishes: Michael
