    v1 v2  
    55The baseline is `bsdsed` as shipped by Apple failing when being run on any input containing non-ASCII characters.
    66
    7 To make matters even more complicated: it fails only when `LC_CTYPE` is set to any UTF-8 locale. Running `LC_CTYPE=C LANG=C texi2dvi --pdf --batch foo.texi` works fine.
     7To make matters even more complicated: it fails only when `LC_CTYPE` is set to any UTF-8 locale BUT the input file has another charset. Running `LC_CTYPE=C LANG=C texi2dvi --pdf --batch foo.texi` works fine.

    99So... I guess `texi2dvi` needs some more code to detect the input file's charset and and change the `LC_CTYPE` and `LANG` environment variables accordingly to some locale supporting the detected charset... but does that make sense?
