Display problem on Windows with time zones containing Non-ASCII characters. |

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
- Load emacs -Q on Windows, on German Windows XP
- M-x calendar
- Go to 21 June 2007, and press "h"
- you will see in minibuffer:
Thursday, June 21, 2007: Summer Solstice 8:05pm (Westeurop\344ische
Normalzeit)
where the four characters "\344" are written in red.
(it should have been an ä).
- Go to scratch buffer, and evaluate
(current-time-zone) with C-j
- Result is
(7200 "Westeurop\344ische Normalzeit")
So there is a problem with the ä in "Westeuropäische". There is another
problem that the correct time zone text should have been
"Mitteleuropäische Sommerzeit" (CEST) instead of "Westeuropäische
Normalzeit" but since both use the same timezone offset (-0200) I don't
know if you can fix that one. Fixing the charset should be possible,
however.

PS: The umlaut appears correctly below in the mail buffer in recent
messages, but it did not in the minibuffer.
