Reinhard, please, give him a break. There seems to be a bug
wrt to latin1 handling when it comes to command line and file
treatment.

Karl already mentioned that he will contact Taco.

I agree that I am happy with UTF8, but we *should* support latin1
(or, for that matter, latin9, or maybe also latinN for N in ...)
as far as possible
