Yes. LANG is set to uk_UA.KOI8-U -- as it was with AbiWord-2.0, that
continues to work.

Thank you! The patch works -- the program comes up and the menus/dialogs
are in Ukrainian. However, when trying to browse a directory (like when
opening), the file-names are presented with Cyrillic characters replaced
by their octal (I guess) equivalents. That's an improvement over 2.0,
which would not mention those files at all in its listing, saying something
about G_FILENAME_ENCODING on stderr.

Trying to set G_FILENAME_ENCODING to uk_UA.KOI8-U as well crashes 2.0
(GLib-ERROR **: gmem.c:140: failed to allocate 1024 bytes), and has NO
EFFECT on 2.2 (no crash, no Cyrillics in filenames).

Many thanks for the patch! Please, do add it to the port. I can't be
the only one :-)
