Description Mikhail Teterin 2000-11-29 22:00:01 UTC 
	It appears,  certain KOI8 characters are  not treated as
	word-boundaries.

How-To-Repeat: 
	If your LANG is set  to ru_SU.KOI8-R or ru_UA.KOI8-U and
	you see the word  "×ÏÍÂÁÔ" properly, try double clicking
	on  it  in  an  xterm. Xterm  will  place  "ÏÍÂÁÔ"  into
	selection, instead  of the whole thing.  For some reason
	both '×' and '÷' are always treated like that.

This sort of reports must be directed to Xterm maintainer.

As Thomas inform me, currently Xterm not use locale for character classes.

To submitter:  Can this PR be closed?  From the audit trail, it looks 
like it is not an issue with FreeBSD locales?

It sounds as though this is a problem with the upstream software.
