Hmm.  The "ã" is a dead giveaway that you are printing a UTF-8 string
that is being interpreted as a ISO-8859-1 string.

You've already said that you're in a UTF-8 locale.  It could be that you 
need to call (setlocale LC_ALL "") from the command line before entering
(new-node "てみました。") as well as having a setlocale call in your program.

Thanks,

Mike Gran
