[Bug 2114827] [NEW] 'od' invalid handling of non ascii chars

 

Public bug reported:

The groff build is failing with the rust coreutils
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/798977884/buildlog_ubuntu-questing-amd64.groff_1.23.0-9_BUILDING.txt.gz

It seems to be due to 'od' incorrectly handling non-ascii chars

$ od --version
od (GNU coreutils) 9.5

$ echo '’' | LC_ALL=C od -t c
0000000 342 200 231  \n
0000004

vs

$ od --version
od 0.0.30

$echo '’' | LC_ALL=C od -t c
0000000   ’  **  **  \n
0000004
