Should be using /etc/environment, I believe. I have LANG set there to en_US.UTF-8. While something like this has been working[1] for most people, it's not great. The problem is that the locale I want for my environment doesn't really have anything to do with the encoding I use for my tags; they're just hopefully the same if I keep things organized. But then a tag may have invalid UTF-8. It really should be fixed in MPD; I haven't looked too closely at what it does. It looks like this could be improved a lot, though, by doing more guessing on the input end and only considering the system locale for output purposes. You would end up seeing 'ignore' or 'replace' encoded stuff in your log file, which might be disconcerting, but... not a show-stopper. I'll see what I can do.
