Are you *sure*???
I did scan for context and didn't see anything that seemed to guarantee non-UTF-8.
Given that RedHat switched the default locale to UTF-8 back in RH 8.0, and Solaris back with Solaris 7 or 8, many base assumptions are now dangerous.
In fact, I was having trouble just the other week regarding trying to use "C" and other locales to force stuff to not use UTF-8 on one box, all to no avail. :-(
