Well, uxterm is just a shell script, an so amenable to quick tests.
Running it with sh -x basically yields (trimming uninteresting bits)

+ LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
+ export LC_CTYPE
+ exec xterm -class UXTerm -title uxterm -u8

which is what triggers my problem when I do it manually (`env
LC_CTYPE=... xterm`).
