Sorry for being thick, but which variable?

I can't reproduce any such problems so perhaps whatever made me add it
is no longer a problem... However, since I removed the UTF-8 language
setting on Windows I had one case which wasn't working right: I ran some
`git show ...` to look at a past change in a (utf-8 encoded) source
file; I ran it with `shell-command` and the resulting text that popped
up had some junk next to some non-ascii characters. I'm pretty sure
that I didn't have such an issue with the setting on.
If this is not expected, I can try to get reproducible instructions.
