This is probably wrong, but I don't quite understand what encoding the various properties in the TrueType file as exposed by FreeType use. Certainly the core protocol uses only Latin-1; but as UTF-8 can easily be confused for Latin-1, it may well be that you can provide UTF-8 strings in XLFD names and have them work "by accident".
