Hm, Benoît has pointed out that it's more than "a small glitch"

The problem is that the dvi file produced with extendedchares=false is
wrong.  Instead of 'réseau', it prints 'érseau':

\documentclass[a4paper, 12pt]{report}

\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[francais]{babel}
\usepackage{listings}

\lstset{extendedchars=false}

\begin{document}

\begin{lstlisting}[language=sh, basicstyle=\ttfamily\footnotesize]
ip prefix-list FILTRE_ANNONCES_ENTRANTES seq 5  deny <réseau> le 32
\end{lstlisting}

\begin{lstlisting}[language=C++, basicstyle=\ttfamily\footnotesize]
void foo() {
// réseau
}
\end{lstlisting}

\end{document}

%%% Local Variables: 
%%% mode: latex
%%% TeX-master: t
%%% coding: utf-8-unix
%%% End: 

The resulting dvi file is at 

http://people.debian.org/~frank/413045-listings-encoding.dvi

Any idea how to fix this?

TIA, Frank
