I guess I don't know the "best" way to solve this, whether that would be Syncronet's web interface converting the text to DOS codepages, Mystic converting it to DOS codepages or having a terminal that displays the intended characters (or a combination of these).

Here's another example that was posted with what looks like cyrillic text that ended up looking funky:
