It's MacOSX for local console, remote to Debian, Solaris, OpenBSD, etc., I
can't keep track of when it works and when it doesn't, but it often doesn't.
Local console works fine.
As the bug says "in many contexts", not "all contexts".
Things are garbled when pasted into web forms, cvs commits, going through ssh.
Is there really a way to communicate this stuff through the various usual
channels? I don't configure the heck out of everything and I expect defaults to
be reasonable. I don't expect compiler messages to be so quick to get garbled.
If input is only 7 bit ASCII, then output should only be 7 bit ASCII.
When I start presenting the compiler with characters beyond that, it can give
them back to me.
