That's odd because the accented character is there in the .mo (in CP1252 though)
$ hexdump -C /usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo | grep -A2 1d330

When I looked at the firts line, I thought "French isn't working either" :)
(That should be Utilisation: ...)

/usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo is conspicuously absent.
The Russian messages in /usr/share/locale/ru/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo
appear to be encoded in UTF-8; I don't know what iconv is supposed to
do when LANG=ru_RU.cp1251 but outputting UTF-8 to a terminal expecting
CP1251 doesn't sound like the right thing to do.
