It's "Report a bug to Apple Friday", and here's my bug.
System Events' "keystroke" command doesn't work with umlauts. In short the following AppleScript:
tell application "System Events" to keystroke "Ümph"
doesn't work as it should. The "keystroke" command is supposed to take Unicode text, but depending on what you put in you'll get varying results. In this case you'll get something that looks like ">mph" typed out for you. Filed as bug 4224989.
