How did you install GWhere under GNU/Linux ?
I think that russians letters are only supported with GTK+ 2.x. So you
should install GWhere from sources with theses commands lines :
./configure --enable-gtk20
make
make install

Thank you for your interest in GWhere ! So, I hope to quickly solve your
font problem.
