Description D.S. Ljungmark 2013-03-16 12:51:33 UTC 
Description of problem:
watch appears to remove non-ascii letters from output:

[spider@Waves]~% locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=sv_SE.utf8
LC_TIME=sv_SE.utf8
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY=sv_SE.utf8
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT=sv_SE.utf8
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

$ date
lör mar 16 13:46:45 CET 2013
$ watch date
Every 2,0s: date                                        Sat Mar 16 13:49:19 2013

lr mar 16 13:49:19 CET 2013




Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
procps-ng-3.3.3-3.20120807git.fc18.x86_64


How reproducible:
set locale to something where a day has non-english letters in them.
alternatively:
[spider@Waves]~% echo Smörgåsgurka 
Smörgåsgurka
[spider@Waves]~% watch 'echo Smörgåsgurka  '

Every 2,0s: echo SmM-CM-6rgM-CM-%sgurka                 Sat Mar 16 13:50:41 2013

Smrgsgurka


  
Actual results:
Disappearing letters, both in files, paths and dates.

Expected results:
Unicode output. We're in a post ascii world, after all.
