Comment (by kalin):

 Now that this is set for 2.4.2, I'll do my best to help. I am using 2.4.1
 on Gentoo linux and am often experiencing icq i18n issues as the
 following:

 1. cannot read Bulgarian from different people, although they read me
 fine:
 ????????  (There was an error receiving this message.  Either you and
 27****26 have different encodings selected, or 27*****26 has a buggy
 client.)

 2. if I send MSG in Bulgarian when a buddy is offline, it gets garbled at
 their end, although we communicate in Bulgarian when on-line

 3. some status MSGs in Bulgarian (I suppose) are shown garbled in pidgin.

 My client is set to UTF-8 all of the time.
 I can take a packet dump, if somebody is willing to cooperate on the
 Windows side, preferably knowing Bulgarian/Russian.
 My icq is 289594325, on-line usually evenings in JST (GMT+09:00) timezone.
