Well, partially.  Its locale-sensibility is limited to UTF-8.
For example,

LC_CTYPE=en_US foobarterm            (ISO-8859-1)
LC_CTYPE=fr_FR@euro foobarterm       (ISO-8859-15)
LC_CTYPE=hu_HU foobarterm            (ISO-8859-2)
LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.KOI8-R foobarterm     (KOI8-R)
LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.eucJP foobarterm      (EUC-JP)

all of these popular locales doesn't work well with uxterm, while
mlterm, eterm, gnome-terminal, (and rxvt-beta) work well.  (The
above list is only examples.  More encodings are supported.)

However, uxterm may or may not be included in the list with 
such a note, I think.
