Well, some distributions, even the most famous and reputedly stable ones 
(no names) manage to completely wreck some of the most basic tools. A 
recent example is a very famous distribution from France (still no name 
;oD) including no less than three DHCP clients by default... but none of 
them works correctly. Other example: yesterday I wanted to convert a 
very large SQL batch file (a 65 MB plain text file) from ISO-8859-1 to 
UTF-8. I ran recode on it... which resulted in a zero length file. My 
database dump had just been sent to byte heaven. Fortunately I had 
thought to make a backup before. (If you're curious: this was Debian 
stable.)

My humble advice would be: try to do what you want to do with another 
distribution. Or several other ones. See if it works.
