That's very strange.  It works as-is for me on Fedora 13, 14, and 15,
which you'd expect to have essentially the same I18N infrastructure as
Ubuntu (and I'm pretty sure I didn't install any optional language
support for Turkish).  Anybody know what the problem is?

The reason I'm resisting just changing it is that I'd prefer to minimize
the number of dependencies this regression test has on the exact
spelling of "UTF-8", as that is not terribly well standardized.  On my
Fedora boxes, for instance, locale -a says that "tr_TR.utf8" is the
name of that particular locale.
