When installing 5.x.3.0-alpha6 from zero..
All tables/columns in database show a correct and explicitly set collation "utf8_general_ci".
The "name" column of spam_statistics however uses default collation (with fallback to anything database has defined as default).
Since this could sometimes lead to confusion of mysql i'd recommend to tie collation to a well defined value.

miro_dietikersorry for inconvenience.. could be deleted.
After some more code diving i see that everything looks fine with the queries in .install.
Finally i can't reproduce how my databases got confused with collations...
