The second case fails horribly. I have no idea why.
FYI, "ö" is not "o" in ASCII. "ö" doesn't exist in ASCII. \xC3 and \xB6 don't exist (have no meaning) in ASCII either. When you specify "LC_CTYPE=C", Perl doesn't know what the bytes \xC3 and \xB6 are supposed to be (that's why it complains that it cannot map them to Unicode).
If that's any consolation, it's IMPOSSIBLE to sanely mix one byte encodings (256 symbols max) and Unicode (> 1000000 codepoints). Perl itself is a great example of this (but that has been already discussed to death on this forum...)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
