If I understand this right, I don't think that will quite work. It's
true that latin1 are the first 256 codepoints in unicode, but the
encoding of chars 128-256 is not the same in latin1 and utf-8.
Anyway, I think the "C" locale are the ISO-8859-1 characters. The
only difference is how they sort and stuff.
But I admit my unicode-fu is not that strong, so I may be totally
off-base here.
