Description Kirill A. Shutemov 2005-10-20 16:59:11 MSD

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=332635

M-b, M-f, M-u, M-l and other keys strokes
do not work properly with non-ASCII input.

This is because isalpha, isalnum,... tolower and toupper function
handles correctly only ASCII characters.
Another bug is in that '(char) 255' is passed to all these functions.
Because 'char == signed char', '(char) 255' is treated as -1 which is equal
to EOF constant.
As a result, when working in CP1251 coding system, the lowercase russian
charter YA is processed incorrectly.
The coding systems KOI8-R and ISO-8859-5 are also affected.

The patch below fixes these bugs.
Please forward it to upstream.
