The lack of UTF-8 locales by default in any modern Linux distribution
needs to be treated as a BUG and reported to the distribution vendor in
their Bugzilla system. 

I have been planning to do this for the latest Ubuntu (Warthog), but I haven't
got around to it yet.

Think about it: any time any of us sees or uses a new distribution without UTF-8
locales by default, this needs to be filed as a bug report.
