I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing here.  FreeBSD's
telnet is 8 bit clean, and will handle character sets such as ISO
8859-1.  I've just checked, and find:

$ telnet localhost
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.lemis.com.
Escape character is '^]'.

I suspect what you're looking for is something which will handle Big
5.  I can't see why telnet should be a problem, though.
