What did earlier kernels do? 2.4.x? I'd be inclined to think that this is more of a terminfo issue. If you want your terminal to reset into UTF-8, use a terminfo entry with the appropriate command string instead of the current one - this would be the 'rs1' capability: rs1=\Ec\E]R That's reset console to default, reset palette. > Presumably userspace knows what mode the user wants the terminal to be > using. Shouldn't userspace be resetting that mode after a reset? There's no standard way to represent this in userspace.
