Bug comments restored from Gmane.org:

I use wine in Russian language environment, and I can see, that it uses
windows-1251 as a default Russian encoding. Of course, it is correct, since
Windows applications usually should work with the windows codepage. Even in
Linux windows-1251 becames more and more popular, since it is really better,
than traditionally used koi8.

But the  Cyrillic X11 keysyms, which I input from my keyboard, are recognized by
wine as koi8, and it is strange, since, I think, the keyboard encoding should
match the encoding used for screen. So I recommend to change 20866 to 1251 at
least for one Russian keyboard described in the file keyboard.c (there are 3
Russian keyboards in this file).

Just submitted a patch to change the main Russian keyboard's codepage to 1251.
