From NEWS:

* Incompatible Lisp Changes in Emacs 24.4

** `read-event' does not return decoded chars in ttys any more.
As was the case in Emacs 22 and before, the decoding of terminal
input, according to `keyboard-coding-system', is not performed in
`read-event' any more.  But unlike in Emacs 22, this decoding is still
done before `input-decode-map', `function-key-map', etc.

Andreas.
