Does FreeBSD support UTF-8 locale well?

[ronggui]

I use zh_CN.GBK as a tentative solution, It works but not as perfectly
as I expected. If I use zh_CN.UTF-8, almost all of the Chinese
characters in the fat32 partition can't be displayed correctly when
mounted.

BTW, is there any plan the improve UTF-8 support in BSD community?
