It should not have any influence as there is no text transformation
involved: g_file_get_contents() loads the file as a sequence of bytes
and gtk_text_buffer_set_text() simply assumes UTF-8 input.

It works for me with any locale, e.g. with

    LC_ALL=POSIX ./textviewtest

You can try to print the loaded text byte by byte if it matches what you
expect and also to run g_utf8_validate() on it directly.
