IMHO in Babel you should have \def\{CYRV{\char "082}, and
\DeclareInputText as above. If you use ^^82 this will be expanded as an
active character again and again.  Use the ^^xx notation only for input
encodings, and never for output encodings!

But this is the wrong list for such bug reports. You should address it to
[log in to unmask] .
