No idea about this one...

That's a little bit harsh. :-) First of all it's not hp2ps, but GHC's RTS
which has a buglet. Furthermore, it only has this problem in some locales.
As a workaround you could try to switch your locale e.g. to English while
running your Haskell program.

I've fixed this about a month ago in the HEAD, but it did not make its way
into the STABLE branch. SimonM?
