It's not working!

I think this only recently started working in some limited circumstances
(See http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2009-09/msg00010.html), and there isn't 
enough version information in OP to determine if it should work or not :-)

These come out as (what I guess are) translations of "Normal" for me, so I 
guess, yes, wrong charset or encoding :-)
