I'm sorry it's too late but I finally tested them and the resuls are

    The first case:
      - with ncurses 4.2
            Have problem
      - with regular Slang 1.4.0
            Have problem
      - with Slang 1.4.0 with SLANG_HAS_KANJI_SUPPORT
            No problem

    The second case:
      - with ncurses 4.2
            No problem
      - with regular Slang 1.4.0
            Have problem
      - with Slang 1.4.0 with SLANG_HAS_KANJI_SUPPORT
            No problem

# All tests are done with Lynx2-8-4dev.4 with NLS.

It seems Lynx2-8-4dev.4 has some problems showing multibyte
characters.  Thanks for your reporting. These problems will never be
found by me because I usually use Slang with SLANG_HAS_KANJI_SUPPORT.
