I guess that's the reason.  The files in question are xhtml files, each
beginning with <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>.  Emacs
displays them in XHTML+ mode.  As I noted, my locale is en_US.UTF-8.  I
guess grep doesn't grok iso-8859-1 in that locale, but with -a can at
least find ascii matches.
