Package: fvwm
Version: 1:2.5.26-1
Severity: normal


Although this problem looks simular to bugs #439904 and #452661 I decide 
to 
file separate bug report, because my investigation shows quite different 
results.

If fvwm2 is started in some 8-bit locale, such as ru_RU.KOI-R, 
applications, which follow freedesktop.org specifications (such as 
Mozilla and wish) are able to display title bars with cyrillic letters 
correctly.

However, if fvwm2 is started in ru_RU.UTF-8 locale, cyrillic letters in 
the window titles are 
broken even if application runs in the same  locale as fvwm.

Moreover incorrect titles are same regardless of locale application is 
run in.

Following tcl script demonstrates problem. It contains unicode escaped 
cyrillic letters, so it can be run in any locale without modification 
and encoding conversion

----
#!/usr/bin/wish
wm title . "\u0420\u0443\u0441\u0441\u043a\u0438\u0439"
----

Attached screenshots shows how it looks in both cases.
I've WindowFont configuration option set to
-*-times-bold-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1 for utf-8
and
-*-times-bold-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-koi8-r for koi8

which resolves to fonts from xfonts-bolkhov-100dpi and 
xfonts-bolkhov-koi8r-100dpi packages respectively.
