I can't rule out that the last time I tried it, I simply made a mistake, am
missing an required setting somewhere else, or it might be a
quirk/incompatibility with PuTTY.  But yeah, I did not have luck getting the
setting to work in such a way that 'make config' on my PuTTY session would use
line-drawing characters instead of random letters/numbers (likely because
something was sending UTF-8 multibyte characters and PuTTY was trying to use
individual bytes).

This was back with portconfig-0.6.1 (I think), so I looked at the changes made,
deduced the lines causing it, and wrote a revert patch to get the old behavior
back.  I documented this in Bug #275304, which was related to the initial UTF8
changes that started this.
