The clipboard implementation in the Windows vncviewer does not handle
non-ascii characters. This is true for the 4.0 and 4.1.1 version. This is
because non-ascii chars are explicitly removed. Why? The patch below
restores the vncviewer3 behaviour and solves our problem (cut and paste
with Swedish chars).
