Well, with your settings you are editing Latin-1 text but tell Emacs
that your terminal displays Latin-9. Emacs doesn't know that it some
Latin-1 characters look the same as some Latin-9 characters, so it
doesn't think it can display the Latin-1 chars in the
Latin-9-displaying terminal.
If your language environment would agree with the terminal, then it
would work better.
FWIW, I just set $LC_CTYPE to de_DE@euro and don't need to change
anything else.
