Old description:

> while error messages containing identifiers with unicode characters print
> fine, other messages from ghci do not.
>
> for instance:
>
> Prelude> α
> <interactive>:1:0: Not in scope: `α'
> Prelude> let α = 4
> Prelude> α
> 4
> Prelude> :type α
> � :: Integer

New description:

 while error messages containing identifiers with unicode characters print
 fine, other messages from ghci do not.

 for instance:
 {{{
 Prelude> α
 <interactive>:1:0: Not in scope: `α'
 Prelude> let α = 4
 Prelude> α
 4
 Prelude> :type α
 � :: Integer
 }}}
