That makes sense. The win32 port of gtk+ uses UTF-8 as its character
encoding -- not latin1 which the server is most likely using. You will
need to do a Latin1 -> UTF-8 conversion, which is most easily done with
Python >= 1.6. Note that you don't want to do such a conversion on the
X11 version of gtk until 2.0 comes out :)
