My current guess is that LANG is set in your terminal, but that you
ran nmbug-status from a cron job where it wasn't set.  If that's the
case, try adding:

  export LANG=en_US.UTF-8

to your cron job (or replace with whichever encoding you like).

We don't care about the preferred language yet, but we could [1].
There's actually not all that much that needs translating for
nmbug-status.

Cheers,
Trevor
