Hello misc!

In an attempt to get a better idea on how to make all non-ascii chars
appear correctly in windows/samba, ssh and the local console I get the
impression that UTF-8 is the charset that is mostly used in general and
also most growing.

Using UTF-8 in samba and ssh on a OpenBSD 4.9 i386 generic machine that is
about to retire works as expected, tested with swedish and icelandish
letters outside the 7bit ascii range.

However, the new machine to replace the 4.9-box, running OpenBSD 5.6 on
amd64 generic.mp #333, shows questionmarks when doing ls in ssh (using
PuTTY set to UTF-8 in translation). The funny thing is that autocomplete
using tab shows the expected letters. pwd shows expected letters and even
ls | cat shows correct letters.

Is this a known problem? Is there a solution to make ls print correct UTF-8?
