Comment (by anonymous):
Just ran into the same problem. I relocated the locale folder to my main
application instead of my project root but still got the same error.
I managed to pin point the offending code by removing all the templates
from the template folder and then put them back one by one while doing a
makemessage -a between each of them.
It turned out that the error was triggered by a single file, which didn't
seem to contain non-ascii character in any trans block.. So I did the same
for the code, I removed it all and started to put it back chunk by chunk
while doing a makemessages -a between each chunks.
Which led me to find out that the offending non-ascii character was in a
TEMPLATE COMMENT.
IMO the translation module should ignore anything that isn't in a
trans/blocktrans altogether. In my case we are French, so often in
template we've put French comments. I'll probably have a lots of projects
that will start to break the translation module because of this this..
