   Just tested beta3 - working like a charm, as usual :) Are you sure you
have correct locale settings? Look into src/test/locale directory; there
you'll find locale test for some locales, including de_DE.ISO-8859-1. Run
the test (make all test-de_DE.ISO-8859-1). Watch the results - is your
locale ok?
   If you are sure your locale is Ok, but still unsatisfied with locale
test - send your patches to me, please.
