Did you setenv ENABLE_STARTUP_LOCALE before calling ls?
See environ(7) (-current).

It is a question. The only difference is space: isprint allows it and isgraph
not. Does allowing spaces in file names considered bad?

Default code table is ASCII and _not_ ISO8859-1, so it not needed to be
populated. Default code table is strict 7bit.

BLANK fixes are incorrect, see isblank(3).
XDIGIT fixes are right but ASCII locale used
for digits and xdigits in any cases.
Other fixes which includes some additional big/lower letters probably
can go, I need to check 8859-1 description first.
BTW, xterm is known to dump core when any of 8bit locales set,
f.e. ISO8859-1 or KOI8-R. color_xterm or mxterm works right.
Can you track this bug, please?
