slrn/unstable, libslang2, unicode?

The slrn.sourceforge.net documentation says Unicode support is
dependent on Slang 2, and that you can compile late version against
that library to get Unicode support.

The unstable version of slrn, however, requires libslang2 but does
support UTF-8. Anyone know why?
