[GRASS5] d.what.vect/form and UTF-8?

Hi,

I have simplified v.in.gns to maintain UTF-8.
After importing for example ar.txt (Argentina),
v.db.select shows well the accented characters in
my UTF-8 enabled konsole.

Using d.what.vect however, I don't see these chars
correctly.

export GRASS_DB_ENCODING=UTF-8
d.what.vect

didn't help. What's the trick to tell the tcl form to
display UTF-8 correctly?

I am using DBF as attribute table.
d.what.vect -x   
shows it correctly in the KDE konsole.

Markus
