Thanks, Earl, but that didn't seem to work... LANG is now
set to C. I began the reindex and it ran for a long time
w/o error, but then suddenly blew up with tens of thousands
of these again:
There may be multiple language-related environment settings. Do a
printenv and examine which envrionment variables need to be fixed.

This problem occurs because perl is treating the source character
encoding as UTF-8, but the source contains 8-bit octets that should
not be treated as UTF-8.
I did a hack of adding a 'use bytes' pragma within the the block
that is causing problems to force perl to treat data in the offending
regex as bytes instead of characters:
