MySQL doesn't support it now, but it is in plans to do full support to
the table and query level.

You can only use one character set at a time for one instance of
mysqld. You need to restart, or start another instance of mysqld if
you want to use two character sets. For manading multiple MySQL server look at:
     http://www.mysql.com/doc/m/y/mysqld_multi.html
    
When a character set is changed, any tables involved should be
reindexed with myisamchk -q -r, like you said you've done.

CG> Many Thanks.
