I figured it out!  It all hinges on the known character sets in Mozilla.
You can edit /usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/res/unixcharset.properties, and search
for FreeBSD.  Insert a line:

locale.all.de_DE.ISO_8859-1=ISO-8859-1

Save, then restart Mozilla with your German LANG set.  It will work.  I'll
be submitting a patch that includes all FreeBSD locales later today. but I
thought you'd like to know.
