Joseph, Ondrej, and myself agree that we should find a way to just make
these files UTF-8. I expect that a precondition is going to be to add
an unremovable C.UTF-8 locale, which I think is important.


I also like the idea of having these files be UTF-8.

Why is an unremovable C.UTF-8 locale a precondition, though? We should be ableto assume a properly-installed localedef and a minimum set of locales forrunning development tools like localedef. The minimum set could includeen_US.UTF-8.
