I've update my trunk branch (I have bzr revno 109274) and rebuilt Emacs.

Now I observe these messages from "Emacs -Q":
* C-h c M-ç => "M-‡ is undefined". (wrong, as before)
* C-h c ESC ç => "M-g (translated from <escape> ç) is undefined".
(wrong, should be "M-ç ...")

And from "Emacs -Q -nw":
* C-h c M-ç => "M-ç is undefined" (correct).
* C-h c ESC ç => "M-g (translated from <escape> ç) is undefined"
(wrong, as in the GUI session).


Juanma, could you please test this, and tell if you see the same?

Thanks.
