Reassigning Bug's results in error: DBD::mysql::db do failed: Illegal mix of collations (utf8_general_ci,COERCIBLE) and (latin1_swedish_ci,IMPLICIT) for operation 'case' at /var/www/bugzilla/process_bug.cgi line 1726

utf8 parameter is on, checksetup.pl converted existing databse to utf8,
rerunning checksetup.pl has no effect on this behavior.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Select existing bugzilla bug
2.Choose "reassign bug"
3.click commit.
Actual Results:  
 DBD::mysql::db do failed: Illegal mix of collations (utf8_general_ci,COERCIBLE) and (latin1_swedish_ci,IMPLICIT) for operation 'case' at /var/www/bugzilla/process_bug.cgi line 1726

Expected Results:  
Bug to be reassigned

Other functions work properly.  Database imported without error and checksetup.pl seemed correct, and converted database to utf8

Did you run contrib/recode.pl as checksetup.pl said to?
