Good daytime!
There is a problem in freeciv with recoding if string contains
symbol that is not present in target charset. Resulted string is
fully not recoded in this case.
Detected on ru_RU.KOI8-R, gui-xaw civclient, civserver (!) are
affected.
This is a known and longstanding bug.
If you use GNU libiconv (as opposed to glibc iconv) the name will be
transliterated (IIRC). Or, if you use gui-gtk-2.0, utf-8 is used and
this is not a problem (not sure about gui-sdl but I strongly suggest it
use utf-8 also). Or, if you use utf-8 as your local encoding then
gui-xaw will use that also.
gui-xaw could be backfitted to use utf-8 internally. However this
requires using utf-8 versions of all string formatting functions in xaw
(hopefully this is possible).
It is possible. With a XFree86 extension that xorg also has.
It will not work on old X systems however.
