I too successfully installed the CharInsert extention. Unfortunately, I missed the thread about how to retain the top row of edit buttons while adding the CharInsert. I had simply replaced Wikibits.js with the new wikibits.js.
Don't replace any of the core files at all. Just place CharInsert.php into the extensions directory and require_once() it from within LocalSettings.php.
This is a common misconception and seems to be causing people to overwrite their JavaScript all over the place. I've removed the offending instruction from the documentation, since it's no longer relevant (it *used* to be, before the appropriate release, which was absolute yonks ago).
