The problem was in one of my customization entries:

    '(enable-multibyte-characters nil)

When I disabled that,
By commenting or removing this line you did not disable anything but  
*enable* GNU Emacs to work correctly, use UTF-8 (with usually more  
than one byte for one character).
emacs once again behaved as I expected.

The other behavior is confusing.  Worth a bug report?
To yourself? Read the documentation and understand that you are using  
a multi-byte/Unicode application. Unibyte can easily be accomplished  
by using an environment variable like LC_CTYPE with a value that  
corresponds to some 7- or 8-bit encoding.
