[wplug] Chinese console fonts?

View it with Firefox?  If so, Firefox probably isn't getting the character
set information that's normally provided by the web server, and thus
falls back to the default character set.

Check to see if the HTML has meta tags with the character set, if it
does, then I'm wrong.  If it doesn't, you should be able to add them
to correct the problem.
