It's a font problem.
Your bold font doesn't contain the glyphs for that language.
You can either:
- work some X terminal configuration magic to specify the font to use
when displaying bold doublewidth characters (eg. -fwb XTerm option);
- switch to another fontset altogether that has those characters in bold;
- workaround it by configuring mutt not to use bold (bright*) colors.
Personally, I don't experience that problem with XTerm and the font
-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-120-100-100-c-90-iso10646-1
(which is my favorite fixed font :-)
