Hello, Pierre,

de_DE.UTF-8, which is configured on my machine, does not work for me.
Even "C" doesn't! However, I have found out, and verified, that old
de_DE.ISO-8859-1 does not show the problem. So that is a workaround
for me, for the time being.

Details (using bash):

for l in de_DE.UTF-8 at euro de_DE.UTF-8 de_DE.ISO-8859-1 C;
do
  echo "$l"; export LANG="$l";
  clisp -c /dev/null 2>&1 | grep CHARSET;
  echo;
done

Result was:

de_DE.UTF-8 at euro
*** - Ungültige Byte-Folge #xC4 #x55 in CHARSET:UTF-8 Konversion

de_DE.UTF-8
*** - Ungültige Byte-Folge #xC4 #x55 in CHARSET:UTF-8 Konversion

de_DE.ISO-8859-1

C
*** - invalid byte #xC3 in CHARSET:ASCII conversion

I guess some start up file has been coded in ISO-8859-1, but also gets
read for both UTF-8 and C/ASCII?

Regards, Andreas
