This behavior hasn't been observed in previous releases. Am I overlooking something that should be obvious? 
latest version (0.4.0) built from source.
Thanks.

David,

ANSI_X3.4-1968 is the official name for the ASCII character set, and so should 
be UTF-8 compatible. I'll need to investigate further why it's being converted 
at all, before thinking about why it failed.

Are you able to discover what the actual encoding of the file is ?

Though there were some encoding changes in this release, I don't thing they 
would have led to a false categorisation as an ascii file.

Regards
Tom



Tom the file I was trying to view was the emelfm2 README file.
