This may be a known issue from the GNOME camp itself.  From the 2.0
Final release notes, they say i18n does not work in gnome-terminal.

"Unfortunately, gnome-terminal is broken in many non-ASCII locales. A
fix for this was proposed but caused many other problems and as a
result, was withdrawn. The author has been working on fixing some of the
bugs and it should be fixed in GNOME 2.0.1. This is bugzilla number bug
78007."

The bug specifically mentions the Asian locales, but the same may
apply.  See if you have any errors in .gnomerc-errors.
