It may be possible to set the kernel behavior via a call to
setlocale(3). That is, change the charset per process within
setlocale routine who knows the LC_CTYPE.
Another way which have larger impact on the whole system is
to change the start up routine to look for LC_CTYPE and change the
behavior.
The last solution is to make the charset of a process
inheritable to child processes.
