I've seen that kind of weirdness when the terminal and programs don't
agree on the character set to use.
If I read correctly, the problem exists on a local terminal too, so it's
improbable it's a charset mismatch problem. Anyway, pasting the output
of the locale program wouldn't hurt, though (and the character encoding
putty is using).
