Looking at www.freebsd.org I found that sgml->html procedure replace things like © etc. with their Latin1 8bit hardcoded values :-( Please fix it ASAP, non-Latin1 pages are very broken otherwise. F.e. both © and have different 8bit codes in KOI8-R than in Latin1. Right way is to not translate &...; entities from sgml source at all and leave them in place. Browser always know better substitution for them. -- Andrey A.
