Yes, and one can still find many iso-8859-1 files. So I hope that
UTF-8 environments are able to recognize non-UTF-8 files and do
the conversion properly until every one has switched to UTF-8 for
text/plain files.
Another temporary solution would be to convert the output into UTF-8
(or the locale-specified charset?) with iconv.
