[Bug 1132526] Re: invaild encoding with .kr and .xn--3e0b707e domains

[era]

Additionally, the message from the old server is misleading.

The above information is encoded with UTF-8
EUC-KR encoding WHOIS is being serviced in this URL:oldwhois.kisa.or.kr

- KISA/KRNIC Whois Service -


lines 42-57/57 (END)

In fact, this is identical to the output if you query with -h
oldwhois.kisa.or.kr; if you use -h whois.kisa.or.kr you do get correct
UTF-8 output (and the same message in the footer).
