What is your locale, as known to Emacs when it starts?

It was discussed here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2016-02/msg00000.html
http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=22392
Why do you think Emacs should use a UTF-8 locale in your case?
> How can I restore the previous behavior?
If you only want to have the files' default encoding be UTF-8, add
this to your ~/.emacs:
(setq-default buffer-file-coding-system 'utf-8)
If you want to override your entire locale with UTF-8, do this:
(set-locale-environment "utf-8")
