As reported here :

Doing this should also allow the tests of non ascii characters to be added back, to pass on CRAN's Mac.

So it should not be Sys.setlocale("LCTYPE","") because the default might be non-English. Needs to be explicitly English UTF-8, and the name for it might be different for each OS.
