I'm no guru, but I don't think POSIX locale knows about umlauts and stuff.
Why don't you set it to your national locale? Something that has iso-8859-1
by default. I have this set to my national locale (pl_PL), so it defaults
to iso-8859-2 and I have no problem with lstroke, uumlaut or anything
like that.

I have it unset.

Good. You might want to try "us-ascii:iso-8859-1:utf-8", though.
I have mine set to "us-ascii:iso-8859-1:iso-8859-2:utf-8".
HTH.
