Fixes #8202
I'm not sure if this fix is complete, because I couldn't reproduce the original behavior of uutils impl with GNU od, so I don't know in which situations the previous implementation was valid (I assume there is/was a reason for implementing it the way it was implemented).
Regardless of the above, this fixes the reported issue. It still lacks localization support, but it works correctly for
LC_ALL=C
as well asLC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
.
