A follow-up:

Could this be a side-effect of the UTF-8 default for Fedora now? This is my 
/etc/sysconfig/i18n (with notes I aded):

-------------------------------------------------
    # in RH9 this was:
    #
    #LANG="en_US"
    #SUPPORTED="en_US:en"
    #SYSFONT="lat0-sun16"
    #SYSFONTACM="iso01"
    #
    # In Fedora Core 1 it is now:
    
    LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
    SUPPORTED="en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en"
    SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"
