dictd messes up IPA characters

[Boris Toloknov]

Binary package hint: dictd

It seems that dictd in jaunty messes up International Phonetic Alphabet(IPA) characters.
To reproduce:
1) install mueller7-dict
2) /etc/init.d/dictd start
4) run uxterm with font which has IPA characters, e.g. DeJaVu Sans Mono
3) dict revolution
Look at the phonetic transcription between "[ ]" аfter "revolution". It's messed up.

IPA characters should look like they look in the attached files file_ubuntu.png or dictd_lenny.png

Additional information:
I don't think that there is a problem with my fonts or client. I can see the text from the dictd database file with all the IPA characters in the same terminal(uxterm) with the same font (DeJaVu Sans Mono). Also I see the proper IPA (in the same terminal under jaunty) running lenny's dictd through chroot from jaunty. I tried to use --locale=ru_RU.UTF-8 as well as --locale=en_US.UTF-8 and no locale at all ( I have LANG=en_US.UTF-8 ) for ditcd. I have all the mentioned locales installed and I don't forget to restart dictd. I tried to use another font which have IPA, English and Russian characters: Thryomanes. I tried to use different clients. I installed and checked all the versions of dictd <= jaunty from ubuntu repository. The result is always the same. I attached some screen shots:
file_ubuntu.png - that's what I see in the data file - the IPA look ok,
dictd_ubuntu.png - that's what I see with dict using ubuntu's dictd - the IPA messed up,
dictd_lenny.png - that's what I see with dict using lenny's dictd - the IPA look ok.

To make sure that this problem belongs to dictd:

1)
uxterm -fa "DeJaVu Sans Mono"
telnet localhost 2628
DEFINE * revolution

The IPA characters are messed up.

2)
uxterm -fa "DeJaVu Sans Mono"
zless +/^revolution /usr/share/dictd/mueller7.dict.dz

The IPA characters are ok.

Karmic's dictd (installed onto jaunty) ruins IPA as well.

My guess is that the problem might be caused by 3 bytes UTF-8 characters like e2+86+98 (U+2198 - south east arrow).
