Make up your mind: either they are in C locale, i.e. US-ASCII charset, 
or in iso-8859-1, but it can't both be true...

Yes -- and that's exactly how your *source files* are interpreted when 
scanning them for translations. You also have in your settings that 
the file should be *saved as UTF-8* which is again exactly what 
poedit did.

No, it should not. You asked to have the file in UTF-8, so that's what 
you got. You'd get the above if you asked for iso-8859-1, which you 
didn't.

So on one hand you require the PO file to be in UTF-8, but on the 
other hand you complain about it being in UTF-8? You have to make 
your mind about what you want: do you want the file to be in UTF-8 or 
not?
