With your patch Martin, test_nonascii is skipped on Android when LANG is not
set and the issue is fixed.

Readline (correctly) uses the locale environment variables to set eight-bit
mode (see function _rl_init_eightbit() in Readline nls.c) and when the LC_CTYPE
category is C or POSIX, eight-bit characters are discarded on input and a bell
character ('\x07') is echoed instead.
