No.  That stuff is ancient.

Yes.  The main reason I'd like you to give LessTif a spin is to see if the
problem disappears, or remains.  The problem doesn't manifest with Motif 1.2.4;
it seems to be a 2.x problem.  I suspect that we're doing something wrong with
the way that we make a call somewhere.  Certainly, plenty of other Motif apps
seem to have no problem with ISO-8859-1 characters.  I'd love to track this
down and fix it once and for all.  More & more people are writing code with
8-bit characters in the source.
