Note that this is fixed in the 2.2 beta releases. See the discussion in https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/Environment-Variables.html#Environment-Variables (part of the 2.0 manual) for more on GUILE_INSTALL_LOCALE. Unfortunately there is still a bug in GUILE_INSTALL_LOCALE=1 in most versions of Guile 2.0 where Guile will install the locale, but not use its charset for the default encoding :( Fixed in 2.2 beta releases, and will be fixed in 2.0.12.
