xterm-380-1 fails to display CJK characters. Downgrading to xterm-379-1 fixes the problem.
I have no Xresource configuration, so the defaults are used: fixed aka 6x13 from xorg-font-misc.
My locale is a straightfoward en_US.UTF-8. See the screenshots attached.

Greetings Arch fellow :) Orphaned pkg. On the surface, it would appear to be an upstream problem. Have you reported the problem there? [1]

Hi. Unfortunately I was unable to locate a bug tracker or a mailing list for upstream development. I was hoping past maintainers or packagers of this package would know more. Cheers.

Is this fixed in 381? https://invisible-island.net/xterm/xterm.log.html
