Subject: Fails for unicode character >= \x{0100}
If an array or hash contains values with unicode characters above 255, then Hash::MD5 fails: $ perl5.18.4 -MHash::MD5=sum_array -e 'sum_array(["\x{0100}"]);' Wide character in subroutine entry at /opt/perl-5.18.4/lib/site_perl/5.18.4/Hash/MD5.pm line 101.

characters are not bytes. Hash::MD5 needs to either encode_utf8() all strings it receives, or clearly document that it operates on bytestrings, not character strings (thereby forcing the caller to encode the string first).
