In 2.2 they get mangled. Could it be this from NEWS: ** Better locale support in Guile scripts When Guile is invoked directly, either from the command line or via a hash-bang line (e.g. "#!/usr/bin/guile"), it now installs the current locale via a call to `(setlocale LC_ALL "")'. For users with a unicode locale, this makes all ports unicode-capable by default, without the need to call `setlocale' in your program. This behavior may be controlled via the GUILE_INSTALL_LOCALE environment variable; see the manual for more.
