Bookloupe was intended to be the UTF-8-aware replacement for gutcheck. 
However, if I remember correctly, at the time the author wrote it PG 
wanted it to report all the same errors as gutcheck would or they would 
not agree to switch over to using it.

So it ended up only partially UTF-8-aware, as with full UTF-8 awareness 
it wouldn't report some errors that gutcheck would have reported. But as 
far as I know Bookloupe is what PG now uses, not gutcheck.
