I assume you use non-gtk version.

Here's what happens:
The server suggest 'Białystok', but when
it's converted from UTF8 to yuor encoding(probably ISO-8859-1 or 15)
it is changed to 'Bialystok' and sent back to the server.

It works only once, then you see this error.
You already have city called 'Bialystok', don't you?

That's ... a problem.
