Well, we're in locale hell. 'Belaïche' in iso-8859-1 is '0x42 0x65 0x6c
0x61 0xef 0x63 0x68 0x65'. In UTF-8, the '0xef' indicates a 3 byte
sequence, but the following '0x63' lacks the necessary control bits ('1'
and '0'), hence it's an illegal character which isn't matched by ".".

LANG=C is a unibyte locale.
