kterm doesn't support UTF-8.

You can do `apt-get install mule-ucs'.

If you want to use emacs on the UTF-8 terminal, put
(set-terminal-coding-system 'utf-8) in your `~/.emacs'.

On my system, sid i386, I can see UTF-8 characters in emacs21 (or
emacs20) with mule-ucs on the mlterm with `LANG=en_US.UTF-8'.
