Which graphic and gui backends do you use. I can't reproduce your
results with graphic-gtk-drawing-area + gui-internal:
pini@pini:~$ LC_ALL=fi_FI.UTF-8 navit
navit:main_init:Warning: LC_ALL is set, this might lead to problems
(e.g. strange positions from GPS)
(process:6049): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
(<unknown>:6049): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library
