I use a UTF-8 locale, so luit isn't involved. Further investigation revealed that the relevant upgrade was not of xterm (from version 255, FTR) but of ncurses-base; the addition of rmm and smm settings to xterm's terminfo entry somehow caused xterm to ignore the eightBitInput resource. (There are some other differences as well, mostly in k* settings, but those look most likely to be the culprit.) I'm leaving this bug assigned to xterm anyway, both because I'm not convinced that that change should have had such an effect and because ncurses gets its xterm terminfo definition from xterm's sources. (The latest update claims to have taken xterm-246's definition.) -- Aaron M.
