Yes $LC_CTYPE is set to en_US.UTF-8. I've looked at the gettext code and found something:

In locale_posix.rb:
...
      [ENV["LC_ALL"], ENV["LC_MESSAGES"], ENV["LANG"],
...

In locale_win32.rb:
...
      ["LC_ALL", "LC_CTYPE", "LC_MESSAGES", "LANG"].each do |env|
...

Adding LC_CTYPE to the first list solve my problem...
