read_table and encoding

What in the world is going on here? Shouldn't these both give unicode?

``` python
import pandas
from StringIO import StringIO
fin = StringIO("Łaski, Jan;1")
df1 = pandas.read_table(fin, sep=";", encoding="utf-8", header=None)
fin.seek(0)
df2 = pandas.read_csv(fin, sep=";", encoding="utf-8", header=None)

type(df1["X.1"].values[0])
type(df2["X.1"].values[0])
```
