I don't know for sure, but I'd compare the preference settings
of the terminal app you are using. There may be some
obscure setting somewhere that says how it should render
unicode (or maybe the default font is different and doesn't
have any way to dig up unicode glyphs).
It is konsole. It displays 八 just fine when typed in. And displays just fine when you
cat a file with Unicode characters. So, I can't see how it would be related to
konsole.
