After some investigation I understood that it was gdm who set ru_UA.utf8 locale instead of orthodox ru_UA.UTF-8, so there were two ways to solve the issue - set proper alias, or set UTF-8 locale after the gdm. I choose to put a string in my ~./profile and it is still there and it works. I think that it's a better solution than putting proper alias to the locale.alias file because X.org updates seem to rewrite it. But if the gdm now sets locale in format "foo_bar.UTF-8" or guys from X.org have set alias for ru_UA.utf then there's no problem. And unfortunately I find neither locale alias nor correct locale from gdm, at least on my system (I use mix of squeeze/wheezy).
