[Monotone-devel] mtn 0.43dev: "failed to convert string from UTF-8 to ANSI_X3.4-1968"

[Jack Lloyd]

If I run mtn log on my nvm db with mtn 0.43-dev, rev
d24b59732a5b3293592457cba013c8f8b716a875, monotone fails with the
following error. I do not have any LANG/LC_* environmental variables
set. Also perhaps relevant: using glibc 2.9-20081201 snapshot. The
_MTN/debug file is attached. I ran the tests after building the
binary, looked OK.
