fwiw, my (local) commit comment said:
the original report was invalid, as I noted in response. But this
followup comment showed a problem. That turns out to be a small fix to
charproc.c, to allow C1 controls to be interpreted _after_ initializing
wide characters but _after_ turning UTF-8 mode off again.
If starting from POSIX locale as OP did, that can be done with the menu.
Normally (starting from UTF-8 locale) the menu entry is grayed out, but
the
control sequence still works.
I also verified that this is the case for OpenBSD 7.2, in case Ingo or
Matthieu
questions it.
