ok. will check this. I've recompile 7.0.2 on freebsd with -funsigned-char
and the problem has gone away. This prove my suggestion. I also
checked 6.5 and it has the same probelm on FreeBSD. Also,
this makes clear many complains about broken locale under FreeBSD
I got from people.
Hmm, current cvs has the same problem :-(
