Do you have stty istrip turned on?
Tried both ways, but that wasn't the problem. I build 19.12 from
scratch for FreeBSD, instead of using the prebuilt BSDI version, and
that solved the meta-character problem. (And created a number of other
little problems, which I'll post to comp.emacs.xemacs later.) Haven't
isolated the reason, though.
I don't know why the other emacs has the problem, since I fetched it
from the packages repository, but I'll eventually try the latest version
to see what it does.
