[hg] Unicode characters fail to print in commit messages

Description

I have unicode characters in commit messages and instead of excepted characters questionmarks are printed.

Example in changeset view: Message: Lis?sin .hgignoreen Visual Studion tiedostoja ja k??nnetyt bin??rit.

Excepted result: Message: Lisäsin .hgignoreen Visual Studion tiedostoja ja käännetyt binäärit

The characters are displayed correctly both with hg log command from terminal and with hgwebdir.fcgi, therefore I assume the bug is in trac or in the hg plugin

I'm using Trac 0.11.1, TracMercurial 0.11.0.5 and Mercurial 1.0.2 in Debian Etch, Python 2.4, sqlite and Apache 2 with fcgi

So I took a brave step into mercurialplugins source and found out that it was not actually the plugin or trac that was encoding messages in ASCII but Mercurial itself, as it didn't know of anything better.

Setting HGENCODING-environment variable in the fcgi-script to UTF-8 works for me, but setting locale correctly(utf-8) could be smarter thing to do?

Leaving bug open as imho this should be investigated, and at least documented somewhere easily accessible.
