  As I wrote there, cxterm and hanterm are to blame because
they violate X11 ICCCM.  Mozilla, yuidt,mlterm and kde are doing just
what they're supposed to do. (I mentioned a work-around that may be
implemented by 'programs on the receiving end' in my posting, but I
think that's not a good idea.) Mozilla has since implemented UTF8_STRING.
'The' way to solve this problem is to fix cxterm and hanterm to support
UTF8_STRING and COMPOUND_TEXT. kterm(Kanji term) and rxvt(cjk) support
COMPOUND_TEXT and  mlterm and xterm(XFree86)  support both.
