Okay, I started tracking this down. Important: What distro do
you use? I suspect this works on Ubuntu and not on Arch.

The problem appears to be that sites with UTF-8 encoding do
not render properly while the ISO encoded do work.

Looking into w3m.el (very hard to for me to follow) it seems
like the command line utility mbconv (part of libmoe) doesn't
exist in Arch. I can find libmoe in deb packages, however
installing it is proving difficult. This MIGHT be the problem
but I am not certain as yet.

If I get any success I will report it here.
