So you are also suggesting that what gesthostbyaddr() returns is not utf-8
encoded too?

What character is 0xb6 anyways?

It isn't. It's a byte. Bytes are not characters.

Well in case of utf-8 encoding for the first 127 codepoing we can safely
say that a character equals a byte :)

Equals? No. Bytes are not characters. (Strictly speaking, they're
codepoints, not characters.)

And anyway, it's the first _128_ codepoints.
