I personally use this:

(set-coding-priority '(coding-category-utf-8))
(setq locale-coding-system 'utf-8)
(set-selection-coding-system 'utf-8)
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8)
;;; Gnus specific
(setq mm-coding-system-priorities '(iso-latin-1 utf-8))

and I also have LANG=en_US.UTF-8 in my environment.  This works pretty well.
