ssh sends the LANG environment variable when connecting to a server.
However, MicroOS does not support any UTF-8 locales other than
en_US.UTF-8/C.UTF-8, so it seems to fall back to a non-UTF-8 one.

This breaks input of multi-byte characters:

> favogt@futec01:~> ls�<backspace>
> -bash: $'ls\303': command not found

Either the fallback has to be improved or SSH configured in a way to not accept
unsupported locales.
