I'm not quite sure what to look for to compare with what you're seeing.

I just installed gnome-terminal and it initially showed only "Unicode
(UTF-8)" under the Terminal -> Set Character Encoding menu.

And I'm showing the following from _any_ terminal:

$ locale
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

(I'm on Mountain Lion)
