Well here's the result (attached) of running a vile built with
--with-trace, I just opened a file with a few UK pound signs and
accented characters and did nothing more. The characters are displayed
as \u00A3 and \u00E9 still. I can't see anything particularly wrong
with the Trace.out but that's probably just my lack of a full
understanding of it.

The characters *do* display correctly if I just cat the file so the
terminal is quite capable of displaying them.
