I wouldn't use "(set-language-environment  'UTF-8)" but set in my  
runtime environment LC_ALL or LC_CTYPE or LANG to be ru_RU.UTF-8. GNU  
Emacs learns from this much more than you can set (right). If you  
still have problems with copy&paste you can try:

	(set-selection-coding-system   'utf-8)
	(set-clipboard-coding-system   'utf-8)

or something more realistic (don't know what encoding Dapper Dan uses  
for copy&paste) and finally there's the call to

	(prefer-coding-system          'utf-8)
