Re: unicode in *compilation* buffer?

Stephen J. Turnbull writes: I tested on two different machines (gentoo linux, slightly different setup, same version of xemacs, invoked with '-q') and saw that the behavior differed. I tracked it down to the fact that one host has LANG=en_US.utf8 set by default in the environment, while the other host has no LANG set at all. Without LANG it works correctly, with LANG set I get the mangled quotes. If I just compile at the shell, the output looks OK, but when I try to copy/paste it here the quotes get changed to ^X/^Y (copy/paste from terminal window) cgw＠duality$ unset LANG cgw＠duality$ gcc -c test.c test.c: In function 'main': test.c:3: error: 'p' undeclared (first use in this function) test.c:3: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once test.c:3: error: for each function it appears in.) test.c:3: error: expected ';' before 'return' cgw＠duality$ LANG=en_US.utf8 gcc -c test.c test.c: In function main: test.c:3: error: p undeclared (first use in this function) test.c:3: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once test.c:3: error: for each function it appears in.) test.c:3: error: expected ; before return Here's the output of M-x describe-installation: uname -a: Linux duality 2.6.30-gentoo-r5 #3 SMP PREEMPT Mon Aug 24 13:18:18 CDT 2009 i686 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU T7600 ＠ 2.33GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux ./configure '--build=i686-pc-linux-gnu' '--host=i686-pc-linux-gnu' '--mandir=/usr/share/man' '--infodir=/usr/share/info' '--datadir=/usr/share' '--sysconfdir=/etc' '--localstatedir=/var/lib' '--with-widgets=athena' '--with-dialogs=athena' '--with-menubars=lucid' '--with-scrollbars=lucid' '--with-athena=xaw' '--with-tiff' '--with-png' '--with-jpeg' '--with-xface' '--with-xft=emacs,tabs,menubars,gauges' '--with-sound=native,alsa' '--with-database=gdbm' '--with-optimization=yes' '--with-gif' '--with-gpm' '--without-postgresql' '--without-ldap' '--without-file-coding' '--without-pop' '--prefix=/usr' '--with-ncurses' '--with-msw=no' '--with-mail-locking=flock' '--with-site-lisp=yes' '--with-site-modules=yes' '--with-newgc' '--enable-option-checking=no' '--with-last-packages=/usr/lib/xemacs' 'build_alias=i686-pc-linux-gnu' 'host_alias=i686-pc-linux-gnu' 'CFLAGS=-march=native -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -I/usr/include/gdbm' 'LDFLAGS=-Wl,-O1' XEmacs 21.5-b29 "garbanzo" configured for `i686-pc-linux'.
