(Copy of upstream report)
Sweep crashes on my Debian system with a non-UTF-8 German locale.
gettext delivers translated strings in the system encoding (latin), while
GTK/Pango seem to expect UTF-8 encoded strings. There are warnings like this:
(sweep:5369): Pango-WARNING **: Invalid UTF-8 string passed to
pango_layout_set_text()
Eventually the program crashes:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

This patch forces gettext to deliver UTF-8 encoded strings, which seems to fix
the issue.
