bingo!

Is it really a good idea to make the *syntax* of the config files depend
on the locale?

What exactly does the locale setting mean, anyway? Does it specify:

- the charset to use in the db
- the charset to use for rendering the search results

the charset (and language) of a page to be indexed cannot really be specified
in a htdig config file; this is something the server controls and communicates
along with the data. Similarly for the encoding of search parameters in search
requests from a user's browser.

I am probably not the only one who uses different config files for digging
and for searching. What are the consistency requirements for the locale
settings in these two configurations?
