 Replying to [comment:1 neteler]:
 > Do you have a sample map to test?
 Here You go. Just create a location and import attached file. Compare
 output of 6.4.0 and 6.4.x current on the same file.

 The idea of setting encoding in a GUI preferences is flawed by design. I
 routinely deal with datasets in different encodings (map1 - utf-8; map2 -
 ISO-8859-13; etc.). Still this is a change that needs to be done in GRASS
 7 to allow specifying encoding for each vector dataset/layer(?)
 separately.
