Is it possible to use Lynx with utf-8 displays *at all*?  I go to
google, customize it to use Russian; reload the search page to get the
new display.

Now select any word in xterm, and try to paste it into the search
field.  I get junk [empty squares].  [Something different (?!!!)
happens if I try to paste a word shown by lynx in a different page: I
get ######## instead of empty squares.]

P.S.  Should tables work with utf-8 output?  I see that they do not
      work well with my patches applied; but I suspect that they did
      not work well before this too.
