I tracked down the root cause of the issue and it was indeed related to locale/charmap. I have 2 locales on my system (en_US.UTF-8 and nl_NL.UTF-8) but no system default and I had *no* "export LANG=en_US.UTF-8" statement in my .bashrc. This apparently resulted in a value of 'locale charmap' of ANSI_X3.4-1968. Changing my .bashrc so that it does export that LANG definition resulted in a value of 'locale charmap' of UTF-8. I could then also revert the patch you suggested and it still worked. HTH, Diederik -- GPG: 0x138E41915C7EFED6
