I'm afraid I still don't understand this sort of scenario. Any environment in which exec-path has unusual characters should be able to display those characters; if not, it's misconfigured, and programs other than Emacs will have trouble too. This is not Alan's situation, and I don't think it's the situation of others who have complained about curved quotes. So I'm still not getting why an LC_ALL-based approach is inappropriate here.
