A global config option wouldn't be a good idea, since different files
might have different encodings. Using the locale encoding is natural as a
solution when there is no information about the encoding, because that's
what other tools often use (this is using LC_CTYPE, not LC_MESSAGES as you
suggest above). This is what svn_utf_cstring_from_Utf8() and the related
functions do. I did something similar to this for diff in r14557. I
suggest adding encoding support to the keyword translation functions.
