You could use

	(prefer-coding-system		'utf-8-hfs)

or whatever encoding you want. Don't set any language-environment (it  
has side-effects like pills also have). You could as well set LC_CTYPE  
and/or LANG in the environment and Emacs will follow this setting.

More variables exist by which you can set encodings for buffers,  
files, processes, copy&paste memory cells.
