Reword warning for deviations from UTF-8 locales
Some locales are UTF-8, but not exactly what Perl is expecting. Revise
the message raised in this circumstance.
Originally I thought these were violations of Unicode, but based on
feedback from Craig Berry, I came to realize that these are legitimate
interpretations of the Unicode standard. But perl persists with its own
interpretation that differs from these, hence the warning.
