Well, in that case your encoding is indeed at variance with your locale
setting ;-).  Perhaps you should declare the encoding as SQL_ASCII.

The immediate problem is that mbstowcs() is being called and it
evidently doesn't know what to do in C locale.  SQL_ASCII (or any
single-byte encoding) would bypass this code path and avoid the
error.
