Thank you, Mikko!
This is ..hmm.. "interesting". We have a few other non-ASCII characters
in a few of the tests/*.R files and they don't seem to harm
your checks; even reg-tests-1c.R contains some.
Also, the "Installation and Administration" R Manual mentions
that some of the tests only run flawlessly if you are not using
"unusual" locales. So I am a bit puzzled that exactly this
(new) test fails in your locale, but the others did not.
However, as I said, thank you indeed for diagnosing the problem and
providing a patch working around it (and still checking the
intended problem !!).
I'm applying the patch now ... so you'd continue to be one of
our valuable pre-alpha/beta testers.
With best regards,
Martin
