Another possibility is that when you're using CDE Login, you can also
copy over /usr/dt/config/Xconfig file to /etc/dt/config/Xconfig and then
uncomment the Dtlogin*language: resource and supply a UTF-8 locale of
your choice as like the following example:
############################################################################
# To specify a default language for the display.
#
# Dtlogin*language: <lang>
Dtlogin*language: en_US.UTF-8
This will take effect once you restart the X server and the CDE Login,
for instance, by selecting Options->Reset Login Screen menu from the CDE Login.
