This is a UTF-8 locale issue. Actually, it's an application issue related 
to using a UTF-8 locale.

grep -A 20 "Distribution General Notes" 
/usr/share/doc/redhat-release-8.0/RELEASE-NOTES-i386

Try starting your application as:
LANG=C your_app

For example, man pages display improperly. I've created an alias in 
/etc/bashrc to work around it for now:
alias man='LANG="C" man'

Hope that helps,
