I opened a separated issue for Linux, #9992, because some Mac OS X users say 
that this issue looks like a Mac OS X bug and the fix may be different.

Extract of msg111432 (#8775): "To be honest, I'd say the behavior of OSX 10.4 
is a bug and we might add a workaround on that platform that uses 
CFStringGetSystemEncoding() to fetch the actual system encoding when LANG=C."
