[Ville Hakulinen]

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

M-x term <ret>

and after that typing say a umlaut or o umlaut causes the letters
to be shown in the buffer, but they are not transmitted forward to
the process running in the terminal.
