Then you're doing something the wrong way ... At least my experience 
(>10a) tells me so. This code never failed for me (and I am no 
politician):

	-*- coding: iso-8859-15; -*-

C-h b shows, amongst many others:

C-x RET l		set-language-environment
C-x RET c		universal-coding-system-argument
C-x RET C-\	set-input-method
C-x RET X		set-next-selection-coding-system
C-x RET x		set-selection-coding-system
C-x RET p		set-buffer-process-coding-system
C-x RET k		set-keyboard-coding-system
C-x RET t		set-terminal-coding-system
C-x RET F		set-file-name-coding-system
C-x RET r		revert-buffer-with-coding-system
C-x RET f		set-buffer-file-coding-system


BTW: to which value is LC_CTYPE set? LC_ALL? LANG?
