Thanks Roderich.
The issue is that, without the additional encodings, a PAR packed executable
fails in those locales that need them. An example from my use case is here:
https://github.com/shawnlaffan/biodiverse/issues/506
The issue boils down to whether they should be implicitly loaded by
Module::ScanDeps, or should be explicitly packaged in the pp call.
Regards,
Shawn.
