If LANG is not set or is "C", Emacs starts in English
lang. env., and in that case, all 8-bit characters has
whitespace syntax. In this situation, 0334 is displayed as
\334 (not as U-umlaut). So, I think it shouldn't have
wordconstituent syntax.

Yes. But that conversion is mainly for a user using
multibyte mode. In unibyte mode
(i.e. default-enable-multibyte-characters is nil),
to-multibyte conversion won't happen usually.

Ah, I see. By the way, in unibyte English lang. env.,
case-table is also reset to the default, i.e., not set for
latin-1.
