emacs -Q
C-h H
Type C-n several times, and you will see some very strange behavior:
for example, some lines are skipped and point never enters them.
Also, some non-ASCII characters are displayed incorrectly. For
example, the "Bengali" line has only 1 "?" character in the
parentheses following the language name, whereas 2 characters are
displayed on a graphics display (I tried MS-Windows). On the same
line, under "HELLO", there are 2 "?" characters instead of 4, and
they are not aligned with the rest of greetings; moving point with
C-f skips those "?"s and lands on what is displayed as space,
but "C-x =" shows that there are non-ASCII characters in the buffer
at those "blank" positions.
Etc., etc., it looks like tty display of non-ASCII characters that
cannot be displayed by the current terminal-coding-system is very
much screwed up.
Here's what "locale" reports, in case it's important:
