As the maintainer of whiptail, I was not aware of this bug, which was filed against modconf. In the current newt package, whiptail and whiptail-utf8 were merged; modconf seems to work fine for me now.
(There are some minor graphical issues in utf-8 mode, due to an error in slang, for which a patch as been submitted; see eg. 195010). Could you please retest modconf against the latest whiptail, 0.51.4-8; and if either confirm the bug or close it? Incidentally, there appear to be a large number of bugs filed against slang / slang-utf8 that I believe to be fixed by recent uploads. I may help go through those and close some.
