nedit on Cygwin


I've used NEdit on Cygwin/X for a couple of years without significant problems. Last night I updated to the latest release (it had probably been a year or more); now when I invoke NEdit (directly or by incanting nc) it starts, and seems to work OK, however I get the error message "UTF8 locale not supported." and command line control is not returned to the shell until the NEdit window is killed.

I see old messages about NEdit not supporting UTF8, but none of them describe this behavior.

Any suggestions? (Note that editor preference is a theological issue, so responses praising whatever editor you happen to worship would not be helpful. As Apu Nahasapeemapetilon once said, "Please do not offer my god a peanut.")

Cygwin/X 1.13.0, NEdit 5.5 (Nov. 18 build), on Windows 7 Home Premium. Thanks.
