I am not aware of any change in the kernel. I think it simply never worked
since we use Unicode for the console.
I did not test, but I think that when the console is in an 8-bit encoding (e.g.
8859-2 for cs_CZ), it will work well with the trivial map.
Or are you aware of any distro we shipped where it worked well in UTF-8 mode?
So yes, we need to specify a screen map for each non-latin1 language in UTF-8
mode. I think the correct mapping should be easy to decode from the
corresponding font's name...
