I hit a regression between glibc-2.3.6-r3 and glibc-2.3.6-r4. utf-8 support does not work for me any longer. maybe I do smth wrong I'm not sure :/

steps to reproduce the problem:

wget http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/examples/UTF-8-demo.txt
export LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8
/usr/bin/xterm -font -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-15-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1
in that term do `cat UTF-8-demo.txt`.

using glibc-2.3.6-r3 it looks ok, using glibc-2.3.6-r4 the output is broken.

Calculating dependencies... done!
