Hmm... To begin with, you should use .bdf font. Then LC_CTYPE should have a
correct value, and the last, libutf8_plug.so should be ld-preloaded.
If it does not work, let me know. In this case, I'd need the font you are
trying to use. :)

It's not sufficient. You should also have a look at utf versions of release_notes
