I had not *explictly* disabled it, since as the doc suggests :
vt.default_utf8= [VT] Format=<0|1> Set system-wide default UTF-8 mode for all tty's. Default is 1, i.e. UTF-8 mode is enabled for all newly opened terminals.
And I know that I can fix the behaviour by explicitly setting it to zero. Also, the fact that "od" shows me multi-byte characters on the input indicates to me that everything is set to UTF-8. So unless I'm missing something, my console is set by default to UTF-8 (I test this on 2.6.25).
Regards, Willy
