TLDNR: Gnome terminal, apparently, is broken if you use the “C”
locale. It wants to see a UTF8 locale, and refuses to work with
anything less! See Debian bug#746415 for details. Programs like
lxterminal and simple xterm work fine, so I’d like to configure Gnome
to use one of them instead of the broken gnome-terminal. But I
haven’t discovered the right magical incantation to do that yet.
Help? Anybody?

I'm sorry that I'm not likely to be helpful. I haven't used Gnome in a
long time, and I know it has changed a lot.
I'm curious, though. How do you launch the terminal window -- from the
menu system / from a desktop or panel shortcut of some kind? What
happens when you use a launcher and specify that it launch xterm, as in
/usr/bin/xterm?
Surely Gnome doesn't subsume all terminal executables and cause them to
launch the Gnome terminal?
I hope you find a solution.
