Obviously your locale setting is not being "exported"...what "shell" are
you using?
It's bash. I'm pretty sure it's exported, because env sees it, and env
isn't a shell builtin in bash (at least not yet :).
You can try to set your locale to en_US.ISO8859-1 explicitly at command
line first,
type in "locale" to confirm that your locale is being set correctly to
en_US.ISO8859-1,
Good clue:
$ export LC_ALL=en_US.ISO8859-1

It turned out I didn't have en_US.ISO-8859-1 configured on my system.
So I used this URL to get it set up:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=423039 I didn't make it my
default locale; I just made it a supported locale.
And now my program appears to work great, even with non-English
filenames - thanks folks!
