Ok, I see. This seems to be a new feature because I get ISO 8859-1 instead
of multibyte but I'm still on curl 7.64.0 and it doesn't seem to have that
code. 

Still, I think some option to force curl to return UTF-8 would be very
nice for portability because AFAICS the current implementation forces me to
write OS-specific code if I want to have error messages in UTF-8...
