Bug#726363: No longer displays Unicode characters

[Josh Triplett]

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 3.8.4-1
Severity: important

(I don't know if this bug lies with gnome-terminal or with something it
depends on.)

After upgrading to GNOME 3.8 in latest unstable, gnome-terminal no
longer displays Unicode characters, including line-drawing characters;
they show up as unknown-character symbols, question marks, or similar.
For example, tools like mutt, tree, or wget produce piles of
unknown-character symbols, one per UTF-8 byte.

wget, for instance, prints Unicode single-quotes around the filename it
prints, which consist of the UTF-8 bytes e2 80 98 and e2 80 99.  Those
show up as three unknown-character symbols.

I'm running gnome-terminal in the C.UTF-8 locale, and I haven't changed
that.
