Serialisation is always done in UTF-8, search for UTF-8 in (guix gexp).
I don't know if deserialisation of the script in done in UTF-8, though
it should be done that way.

Also, using the same character encoding is not sufficient, the
character encoding must also encode all characters (in practice, that
means UTF-8).
