Are you sure about that? Why would gettext be converting to SJIS, when
SJIS is nowhere in the environment it can see? I believe that Peter's
hypothesis is that gettext is leaving the string in EUC_JP because
it sees locale = C and so has no basis for doing any conversion.

We still end up with a failure, because the basic problem is that the
string isn't UTF8, but it's important to be sure we understand the exact
mechanism.
