I have the same problem with cp1251 and, seems, it's a bug. I have posted correspoding message two days ago. Without any reply 8((( I migrate 3.23.55 -> 4.1.1 and I don't know about existing such problem in 4.0. Look in your <table>.frm - your field is in correct charset. More of, inserts and updates of your tables are working correct (check it ;). The problem, IMHO, is in 'show columns ...' implementation. For me, it's critically (in my apps, I grab allowed values from table structure).
