System: NetBSD chen.chizhovka.net 4.0_BETA2 NetBSD 4.0_BETA2 (GENERIC) #20: Wed Jun 20 19:58:12 EEST 2007 cheusov@chen.chizhovka.net:/srv/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC i386
Architecture: i386
Machine: i386
>Description:
Lots of ksh line editing functions e.g.
upcase-word, capitalize-word, forward-word etc.
work incorrectly with 8-bit input (cyrillic in my case).
This is because setlocale(3) is not called.
