When I change LC_ALL it works. And if you have an ASCIIEncoding for the
Console/Default et al it's because g_get_charset () found that to be the
encoding for your console.

Compile the attached program and tell us the output.

gcc -ggdb `pkg-config --cflags glib-2.0`   -c -o getenc.o getenc.c
gcc -ggdb `pkg-config --libs glib-2.0`  getenc.o   -o getenc

Also try changing your LC_ALL and related variables (don't forget to
export them) and run the program to see the results.

InternalCodePage () uses g_get_charset () too.
