Package: linux-latest-2.6
Severity: normal

As per etch release notes: "Default encoding for etch is UTF-8". Section
2.2 on release notes:
http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/release-notes/ch-whats-new.en.html#s-system-changes

This is not true for GNU/Linux kernel where you can find that 
CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT is set to "iso8859-1". This prevents uaing utf-8 charset 
for mounted filesystems for example samba (smbfs), and maybe others.

Etch has already being released with this, but IMHO this should be fixed
from now on.

Thanks.
