Not quite.

LANG=he_IL.utf-8 LC_MESSAGES=he konsole --help

And it still shows up messed up in konsole (1.0.1/kde 2.0.1):

even after I set the font to an iso10646-1 font (which seems to work fine
with unicode xterm)

Oh... Now I get it. Konsole only displays utf8 when LANG is set to
'*.utf8' .

e.g.:

LANG=blabla.utf8 konsole

will do, but not:

LC_ALL=he_IL.utf8

Have things got more sane in 2.1 ?

I would rather have such a feature be overidable with command-line
switches.
