I mean, server and client communicate message.
You are using
    g_convert(src, -1, "ISO-8859-1", "UTF-8", NULL, &len, NULL);
    g_convert(src, nsrc, "UTF-8", "ISO-8859-1", NULL, &len, NULL);
, so I can use only LANG=C server. I tested server with ja_JP.eucJP or 
ja_JP.UTF-8. 


I dug old mailing list archive, and I found good solution.

Anyway, I tried new freeciv.rc-2.0 in CVS-1.6 instead you writing.

Unfortunately still I get warning message. I suspect it is my environment
problem because when I tried to execute glade-2, I get same warning
message. 

** (glade-2:14041): WARNING **: Cannot load font for XLFD 
'-kochi-gothic-medium-r-normal--8-*-*-*-*-*-jisx0201.1976-0


I am fighting to solve the font problem.
