Well, I solved the problem for you, but it's still terrifically confusing and in the long run we need some better approach, so I'll try to keep thinking about it.

active file. --syntax-encoding controls the former. "SET LOCALE"
controls the latter. If you add "SET LOCALE='utf-8'" to the top of your
syntax file, it ought to work as expected. (Both encodings default to
the system locale, so switching to a UTF-8 locale should also work.)
