Close -- the way Red Hat 8 is set up, it seems like the whole world
needs to be UTF8 :/
This is an exaggeration, but it's wider than just the single system. As
I mentioned, ssh'ing into a Red Hat box from another non-RHL8 box shows
these encoding annoyances.

It's news, then :)
You can specify "en_US.UTF-8" as your locale. Which implies to me that
xterm can recognize, from its environment, the encoding, and act
accordingly.
