Hi,
minor improvements vs. v2 patch:
1) some more comments added.
2) we now print the position of the illegal character.

What is the problem with locale-specific characters?
I have used user and group names with UTF-8 characters and I didn't notice a problem so far. GNU ls even adjusts the width of the user and group names properly for UTF-8 names, which would be useless if such names can't be created. (Side note, Busybox ls does not adjust the width and truncates at 8 bytes).
