Can you try some explicit $_layout settings?
There seems to be a $_layout = "de" without dead keys and a $_layout =
"de_latin1" which uses dead keys.

The slang is ok, probably. There were problems with utf8-enabled slang
(which you reported a long time ago) and the configure script checks for
those.
Only in the CVS any slang is ok now, as DOSEMU was fixed to deal with UTF8
terminals. A nice thing about UTF8 is that it allows us to show all the
funny DOS text symbols ("pseudo graphics"), including the card suits and
smileys even in terminal mode if the right font is loaded.

This looks like an MFS bug. Can you try to compile with
make distclean
./default-configure -d
make
and retry? The gdb backtrace will be much more useful then.
