it's Suse linux 8.2. Independent which "LANG" or rather the "locale" I define the result is the same...
(I don't have experience with Suse.) Are you sure it's not working, even with LC_ALL set to blank?
$ LC_ALL= amreport ...
Try this one (there was a bug in some old version of glib concerning where it checked for CHARSET in some obscure cases.)
$ CHARSET=us amreport ...
Thankx for your help - Leo

OS??
Solaris, maybe others too, uses environment vars to set the "locale". On Solaris the vars are LANG and a series of LC_xxxx vars where xxx includes CTYPE, TIME, ... and also "ALL" which overrides the other LC's.
Try running your amreport command with the vars set to appropriate locales for your OS. One will probably be "C", so my example uses that:
LANG=C LC_CTYPE=C LC_ALL=C amreport <config> -l log.xxxxxxx
This will set (or change) the vars just for the running of the amreport cmd.
