It works on *your* linux, because *your* linux is
automagically configured in the way the device that
hosts "unicode" (the console in that case) "works
in utf-8" (most probably).

On a "Russian" linux using koi8 or a "French" linux
using iso-8859-15, the problem is exacly similar as
on Windows. This is valid for any OS.

In essence, assuming the hosting device is "in utf-8"
is as wrong as assuming it is in, eg. cp852 or any
encoding.

This has nothing to do with Unicode.
