I suppose maybe it works better if you don't breath on it too strongly,
but gnome's support for utf8 seems ... fragile.
I normally use LANG=ja_JP.eucJP, and everything (including gnome panel/apps)
works fine; I tried using LANG=ja_JP.utf8 as my login locale (set by gdm) a
while ago, and while emacs handled it correctly, gnome apps started flaking
out and crashing left and right (this was gnome v.whatever was in unstable a
few months ago). Maybe when 2.4 shows up I'll try again...
