I took a look at the R source and I realized that the encoding was actually never passed to the vignette engine: https://github.com/wch/r-source/blob/e721ef5f4/src/library/tools/R/Vignettes.R#L507 Apparently only the file and quiet arguments are passed to the vignette engine. Did I miss anything?
To Thierry: I explicitly asked for library(rmarkdown);sessionInfo(), but you only told me the version of rmarkdown, which is not the only thing I was asking for. It is extremely important in this case to know the versions of other packages as well as your system locale information.
