[Bug 588037] [NEW] 'more' doesnt handle multibyte utf8 properly

[marker 加拿大]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: util-linux

using cedict.u8 extracted from:
http://www.mdbg.net/chindict/export/cedict/cedict_1_0_ts_utf-8_mdbg.zip

If you run on the command line:
cat cedict.u8 |more

It displays 1 screen of data from the file, but every time you push
'enter' after that, instead of displaying 1 additional screen of data at
a time, it displays 1 additional line at a time.

This is reproducible every time the file contains multibyte utf8
characters like 你好.
