Bad display for character entity references



I'm getting mail from MS-Outlook users who HTML encode a
"right single quotation mark" as ’

When reading the mail with gnus and emacs w3m, the character
is incorrectly displayed as the character "Latin small
letter u with grave" i.e the character represented by ù

I'm using w3m-0.5.1 and emacs_w3m 1.4.3.

Is this a known bug?

Is there a workaround for it?

Here's a copy of the mail message:
