[plt-scheme] encoding: latin1 and utf

Does (locale-string-encoding) return "ISO-8859-1" ?

Setting my locale to pt_BR (ANSI_X3.4-1968) while my terminal/input is
in Latin-1 gives me a similar problem:

"ANSI_X3.4-1968"

string->bytes/locale: string cannot be encoded for the current locale:
"programação"
> (string->bytes/latin-1 "programação")
#"programa\347\343o"

So maybe you have a mismatch too.
