Summary: zexy announce message charset confusion

Initial Comment:
$ pd -stderr -verbose -lib zexy
tried /usr/lib/pd/extra/zexy/zexy.pd_linux and succeeded

        ����������������������������
        � the zexy external  2.2.1 �
        � (l)  forum::f�::uml�te �
        �  compiled:  Jun 17 2008  �
        � send me a 'help' message �
        ����������������������������

$ echo $LANG
en_GB.UTF-8

Without -stderr, TCL/Tk (version 8.5) or Pd's console gets really confused and displays a big empty space with invisible text that shows up only when carefully selected...


other externals may be affected by this issue too...

see attached screenshot of "pd -lib zexy"

doesn't seem to cause any non-cosmetic issues though

this is (somewhat) by intention.
does it make any problems (apart from being "unpretty")?

as long as "zexy $(VERSION) and something indicating "copyleft <me>" is
displayed, i will not fix it.
