[Bug 1088506] [NEW] The messages of console utilities have wrong encoding

[dimytch]

Public bug reported:

When using LANG=ru_RU.utf8 console utilities are writing me with koi8-r encoding wich is unreadable.
I can view help with redirecting 2>&1 | iconv -f koi8-r -t utf-8
but when using utilities they are completely unusable.

Archlinux, Linux kserv 3.6.8-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Nov 26 22:10:40 CET 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux
mailman 2.1.15-2
Python 2.7.3

Feel free to contact me if more information needed.
Also: I don`t know how to program in python.
