xterm patch #197 addresses this by using the error status from the 'locale'
program to check if a given locale is installed.

That does not really solve the problem if I should happen to have the UTF-8
locales installed; the default x-terminal-emulator still uses a locale I
never asked for (and do not want), which is distinctly different from all
other applications (say, Mozilla, or gvim) and the Linux console.

uxterm sets a UTF-8 locale.
If you don't want a UTF-8 locale, you should not run uxterm.
