+Summary: output of non-ASCII characters does not work
+
+Description of Problem: 
+Non-ASCII characters are printed as question marks on the console with 
+'mint' (but not with 'mono'). 
+ 
+ 
+Steps to reproduce the problem: 
+Install mono-0.28. 
+$ export LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 
+$ export LC_COLLATE=POSIX 
+$ env | grep '^\(LANG\|LC_\)' 
+LC_COLLATE=POSIX 
+LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 
+$ cat > hello.cs <<\EOF 
+using System; 
+class Hello { 
+  static void Main() { 
+    System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = 
+    System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = 
+      new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("de-DE"); 
+    Console.WriteLine("Hall\u00f6chen"); 
+  } 
+} 
+EOF 
+$ mcs hello.cs -o hello.mono.exe 
+$ mint hello.mono.exe 
+ 
+ 
+Actual Results: 
+$ mint hello.mono.exe 
+Hall?chen 
+ 
+ 
+Expected Results: 
+$ mint hello.mono.exe 
+Hallöchen 
+ 
+ 
+How often does this happen?  
+Reproducible. 
+ 
+Additional Information: 
+ 
+Results on Windows (.NET CLR 1.0.3705): 
+>hello.mono.exe 
+Hallöchen [in CP437 or CP850 encoding] 
+ 
+Possible reason: mint does not perform a setlocale(LC_ALL,"") call.

+You were right. setlocale call was missing.
+It's fixed in CVS. Thanks.
