It indeed looks like a charset issue, but I have no idea if the problem is on 
Eugen's system or in mc.

If we decode the UTF-8 characters, we get these bytes:

>>> [hex(c) for c in '_à_á_'.encode('utf8')]
['0x5f', '0xc3', '0xa0', '0x5f', '0xc3', '0xa1', '0x5f']

And 0xa0 is the code for "Non-Breaking Space" in iso8859.
