oops, sorry and thanks for the test!

although i suggest to explicitly specify an encoding, to be safe from
flexi-stream changes. :iso-8859-1 seems to be a safe bet, and it's the
default of flexi-streams when the external-format is not given.

afaiu, special care was taken that the locale files are us-ascii
encoded, except the comments in them, where loading failed with
:us-ascii.

i've pushed a fix.
