What was your upgrade process that you followed?

Everyone:
About a week ago, I updated a set of wikis I help run, from MW 1.14 (and PHP 2.5) to MW 1.25.1 (PHP 5.5.27)
One of the wikis in the set is in Russian. Before the update, I could specify a page title on that wiki, in Cyrillic script, and it would load without fail.
But now, this does not happen. The page is in there, all right. But when I go to retrieve it, I go to the search page. Usually the first result on that page is the page I want. But the page is titled in unreadable modified Latin characters, not the Cyrillic original page title.
I have inspected the page table, and the page_title column. It has the titles of the pages in question, all in the form that I can't read, but which at least uniquely identifies each page.
I conclude: the routine that is supposed to translate between Cyrillic script and the Unicode that the page titles use, is not working properly.
I've been all over the MediaWiki tech manual, Stack Overflow, and other places too numerous to name, trying to find a solution to this problem. So now I've come here.
What did I overlook?
