This reminds me, I've had a few problems with survex due to the i18n 
build system.  Redhat/Fedora use a UTF8 local by default, and with a 
standard "./configure; make" this means perl runs the msg.pl script in 
Unicode mode and it makes corrupt .msg files.

Once I worked out what was wrong it was easy enough to work around it 
with "LANG=C make", but the build process/perl script should probably be 
fixed...
