The ncurses test-programs (ncurses and demo_menus) are supposed to do this.
I recall testing the functionality by modifying the menu data to use some
UTF-8 example.  You should be able to see this work by building demo_menus
(with ncursesw/menuw) and giving the name of your menu-file from the 
command-line,
e.g.,

        ./demo_menus utf8menus.txt

makes each line in utf8menus.txt become an entry in the "Select" menu.
