Hi Roger, sorry this response is so long past your original post.
The patch you provided doesn't work for me; I used a config file with:
hardstatus alwayslastline "γρεεκ" ;)
but it still displayed garbled for me, even with the patch. I suppose
maybe it was intended only for hardstatus values received via escape
sequences?
However, even if it had worked, I don't think it would have done the
right thing with multiple displays with varying encodings (say, one with
UTF-8, another with ISO 8859-7). That's important for screen, and is a
large part of the reason that Micha stated that a proper fix would not
be simple.
