mc in terminal with zh_TW locale have mess display in karmic

[Antony Shen]

My dist. is jaunty, i.e. alpha version of Ubuntu 9.10. My locale is zh_TW.UTF-8, and desktop is gnome. When I use mc in gnome-terminal, it would corrupt the mc display when I move scrollbar down, as shown in the attached pic.

This bug is similar to #173322 & #66272, but the previous two issues are all closed, so I create a new one for jaunty.

Probably related to Bug #31501 as well?

The corruption is similar to Bug #31501, but I observe this both in mc and apititude.

I found mc display corruption only occurs in gnome-terminal & other libvte related terminal programs. If I change to konsole and run mc or aptitude, the corruption disappeared.

Re-assigning this to vte.

Is this still an issue with Lucid or Maverick versions?
