I am afraid you are misunderstanding the problem that I reported.

Even though the gnome-terminal here is configured with ja_JP.UTF-8,
the terminal fails to encode Japanese characters correctly.

For example, when I tried to launche a gnome-terminal with the
ja_JP.EUC-JP locale during ja_JP.UTF-8 of GNOME session,
I experience a normal behavior: no mis-encodings.

Thank you.
