#2302: error messages mangle unicode characters

ghc/ghci understand source code written in UTF-8. However, an error
message that contains such characters will turn them into gibberish. This
is especially annoying in ghci:
{{{
*> ä
<interactive>:1:0: Not in scope: `�'
*> Ȫ
<interactive>:1:0: Not in scope: data constructor `*'
}}}
