Summary: SCUMM: accented characters not displayed in msg boxes

Initial Comment:
Not sure if this is a SCUMM engine or GUI issue.
This occurs in various SCUMM games, French DOS version, floppy or CD.
I use the latest daily build of SCUMMVM, win 32.

Accented characters are not displayed in messages boxes, 
such as the pause message, or the F8 key Are_you_sure you_want_to_restart type message.
Example:
the pause message in MI1 is : "Jeu arrĂȘtĂ©. Appuyez sur SPACE pour continuer."
SCUMMVM displays : "Jeu arrt. Appuyez sur SPACE pour continuer."

The strings are correct in the resource files and are displayed correctly in DOSBox.
This problem has been there forever in SCUMMVM, so this is not a regression.
