"If anybody was waiting for the solution the this conundrum with bated
breath (!), the solution is that one must have the LC_* environmewnt
variables set up. Once this is done  s are handled correctly:

LC_COLLATE=en_UK
LC_CTYPE=en_UK
LC_MESSAGES=C
LC_MONETARY=en_UK
LC_NUMERIC=en_UK
LC_TIME=C

I would never have seen that one coming ....
thanks for the *valuable* information.
