Right, I guess that is what "enabled by default" means :).  Kidding aside, I
very strongly suspect that either something is wrong with the amd64 side of
things (and I couldn't help there -- are you followed the list there ?) or
that you have something wrong with your LANG and LC_CTYPE settings (that are
shown below and look right).

I typically run them empty -- but Doug did some more tests and share some
with me, and that worked for the few locales I have installed here.

What does capabilties() show, in particular for iconv ?

Doug, any other idea or suggestion?

Cheers, Dirk
