Comment:

 Replying to [comment:4 aaugustin]:

 > Apparently my terminal (under OS X) doesn't support `export
 LC_ALL=fr_FR.ISO-8859-1`; that activates the C locale instead.

 That's cause on FreeBSD derived systems the locale would be
 fr_FR.ISO8859-1.

 The root cause is that u umlaut in latin-1 conflicts with UTF-8 encoding,
 where the value is used as part of the variable size encoding scheme:
 {{{
 >>> u = unicode('\xfc', 'latin1')
 >>> u.encode('utf-8')
 '\xc3\xbc'
 }}}
