Hi Guys,

I finally understand this bug: Here's the problem -- mrxvt is set up so
that for non-zero encoding methods, any non-ascii character is treated
as a multibyte character. This is clearly false for the 8859 encodings,
which is why the above problems occur.

To cut a long story short -- using -km none should solve all your
problems. However now that I've understood whats going on here, I'm
hoping it wont' be too hard to implement the 8859 encodings in mrxvt.
Let's see if that happens.
