Running grep-excuses for instance right now against the linux package

Migration status for linux (6.12.21-1 to 6.12.22-1): Waiting for test
results or another package, or too young (no action required now - check later)
Issues preventing migration:
Wide character in print at /usr/bin/grep-excuses line 364.
This patch fixes it for me, but my Perl is quite rusty. (Ideally it
might use the locale encoding instead of hardcoding UTF-8; but it
wouldn't be the first script in devscripts to take the latter approach,
and the smarter approach used in who-permits-upload would cause
grep-excuses to gain an additional dependency on libencode-locale-perl.)
