I just noticed that there is a "src/test/locale" directory with some stuff
about german, greek and korean, so ISTM that the infrastructure is there,
and could be populated with other locales, especially something with UTF8
which is quite commonplace, would be nice.

However, it is not clear whether these tests run automatically or only if
they are explicitely called. The README seems to suggest that it is the
later. If so, maybe having them invoked automatically if possible would
ensure that they are run from time to time.
