nbsp (nonbreaking spaces) in IEMGUI labels... they appear as pairs

Cygwin Tcl/Tk is 8.4.1, so I think there are bugs there. With Tcl 8.5
on all platforms, I get proper display of many different alphabets,
let alone accents. As for encodings, everything should use UTF-8
these days. GNU/Linux distros and Mac OS X use it as the native format
(more or less) while Windows uses something not too far off (UCS-16).
