Hello,

I can't write these characters '€' 'œ' using ISO-8859-15 locales, in 
fact the 'œ' character is replaced with '½'.

As you can see here http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8859-15 the œ 
character should be replaced with ½, so i'm guessing if the locales are 
really using ISO-8859-15 and not only 8859-1

These problems were reported on xterm / urxvt with or without vim.

My locales :

markand@Melon ~ $ locale
LANG=fr_FR.ISO8859-15
LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.ISO8859-15"
LC_COLLATE="fr_FR.ISO8859-15"
LC_TIME="fr_FR.ISO8859-15"
LC_NUMERIC="fr_FR.ISO8859-15"
LC_MONETARY="fr_FR.ISO8859-15"
LC_MESSAGES="fr_FR.ISO8859-15"
LC_ALL=

Kind regards,
