The Euro sign works perfectly in US and Norwegian translations on
Windows ME at least. The other translations don't, and *couldn't*,
as they contain a mix of ISO-8859-x and UTF-8 byte sequences.

The Euro sign is the only UTF-8 byte (sub)sequence, while the rest
of the strings are in ISO-8859-1, AFAICS (at least for German and
French, the other language may be in other ISO 8859 encodings
(they're all supersets of US-ASCII)).

Note that Euro sign is *not* available in any of the non-
UTF-8-encodings used. (Though it *is* available in the new
ISO-8859-15 encoding.)

When did the US strings switch over UTF-8, by the way?
