xterm -u8 does not start xterm in UTF-8 mode, nor does specifying
xterm*VT100*utf8: in ~/.Xresources make xterm start in UTF-8 mode by default.
Xterm can be switched to UTF-8 manually (control-rightclick) in both cases, but
I'd like it to be in UTF-8 mode by default. This is possible with xterm
version 200, but not with the current Sid version (202).
