Hmmm...  I wonder if that's related to something I found in Alpine 2.21?

After upgrading from 2.20, I found that UTF-8 characters were displaying 
as "??" despite having "display-character-set=UTF-8" set.  I asked the 
maintainer on record some months ago, with no response.

I fixed it by adding "LANG=en_US.UTF-8" to the environment.

Funny; it worked all the way up to 2.20 without it...  Oh, and still no 
response from "mbeis@xs4all.nl"; is he/she/it still alive?
