Not at all. I'm usually working in an utf-8 environment. For testing
reasons I just switched to latin1 (LANG=de_DE). Then I did
emacs -q
thus bypassing any user initialisation files like .emacs (I also
renamed .emacs-w3m in order to keep all the standard settings). With
this setup emacs-w3m displayed the sample file just fine.
