Something screwy is going on here. I don't know where the "a^" is
going, and the \200\230 in UTF-8 translates to U+0018 aka ASCII 24
aka ^X.
Aha, I've managed to partially reproduce. I haven't figured out
entirely what's going on yet, but that's apparently not UTF-8; it's
bigendian UTF-16. Apparently the quotation marks are U+2018 and
U+2019
U+2018 in UTF-8 is "\xe2\x80\x98", and '\xe2' in ISO-8859-1 is
"รข"
(a-circumflex).
Is gcc producing UTF-8 which is being transliterated to ASCII?
