bug#12082: 24.1.50; Wrong character showed by "C-h c"

[Dani Moncayo]

Hi,

With the current Emacs trunk, and from "emacs -Q", if I type "C-h c
M-ç", I get the message "M-‡ is undefined" in the echo area.

The correct message would be "M-ç is undefined", which is what I get
if I repeat the experiment with the Emacs 24.1 release.

However, if I repeat the experiment (both with the trunk and with the
24.1 release), but this time in TTY mode (-Q -nw), the version which
behaves correctly is the trunk (Emacs 24.1 gives me the message
"M-‡\207 is undefined").
