Bug Description
If the file "tx" does not exist and the locale is en_US.UTF-8, "rm" will print:
$ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 rm tx
rm: cannot remove â: No such file or directory
$ LANG=en_US rm tx
rm: cannot remove 'tx': No such file or directory
$ LANG=C rm tx
rm: cannot remove 'tx': No such file or directory
This is in coreutils 8.21-1ubuntu5.4 on Ubuntu 14.04.
