Hi list
When running uxterm from xterm-185-2 I get
12:47 PM [126]> uxterm
xterm: bad command line option "-u8"

Type xterm -help for a full description.
This used to work before decoupling xterm from XFree86-bin.
Additionally before, I could use the following command line to display
Unicode characters in an xterm with the sample text file at

12:46 PM [93]> LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 xterm -fn '-Misc-Fixed-Medium-R-SemiCondensed--13-120-75-75-C-60-ISO10646-1' -sb
Now it crashes :-((
(gdb) bt
#0 0x6fd08e84 in cygX11-6!XFreeFont () from /usr/X11R6/bin/cygX11-6.dll
#1 0x6fd08418 in cygX11-6!XLoadQueryFont () from /usr/X11R6/bin/cygX11-6.dll

#3 0x0a0472f8 in ?? ()
#4 0x0a054e5c in ?? ()
Any hints ? Can anybody confirm ?
This looks the same like the bt from my already reported crash with xfontsel:
(gdb) bt
#0 0x6fd08e84 in cygX11-6!XFreeFont () from /usr/X11R6/bin/cygX11-6.dll
