Hi,

On FreeBSD (where I just did a minor release update from 13.2 p8 to p11)=
  I just rebuilt base/gui/backincluding reconfiguration. I have broken k=
eyboard input for special characters. I don't know if it will show up, s=
o if it is typing or display. Two characters are displayed instead of on=
e, before I have a Cap. A with ^ and then different things, maybe the co=
rrect character, maybe a space.

Pound sign: =C3=82=C2=A3  (Awith ^ followed by pound sign)
Small accented a: =C3=83=C2=A0 (A with ^ followed by space)
Euro sign: =C3=A2=C2=82=C2=AC (small a with ^ and then graphic angular s=
ymbol)
Paragprah sign: =C3=82=C2=A7 (A with ^ followed by paragraph sign).


This happens in GNUMail but also Ink which I also did rebuild, so I beli=
ve it comes from GNUstep core.
I tried viewing some old mails, symbols come out correctly, so it appear=
s to be an input problem.

I also checked on a laptop, same OS version (including minor), clang run=
time, etc: works
Or on Linux with gcc, all is fine!

This is really strange!=20
