Description:
world.inc has a mix of windows-1251 and utf8 encoding.
All tests using this file have wrong .result files.

Discovered during analysis of WL#10300

How to repeat:
Look at the file contents, and encodings here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows-1252

Suggested fix:
iconv -f utf8 -t latin1       world.inc -o yy.yy
iconv -f windows-1252 -t utf8 yy.yy     -o zz.zz
mv zz.zz world.inc
