Thanks for the suggestion, I have already reconfigured locale and it did not 
fix the issue. Also if you were to check
the output of locale LANG is set, my issue is with LC_ALL. I can not find out 
how this is set. I guess I could export
it, but not understanding how this is supposed to work, mean that could have 
consequences that I may not want to pay.
