Make sure you have the latest version of glibc, I think it's 2.6-2 (but
I could be wrong.).

Check the announcement on the main www.archlinux.org page, in the news
section I think.  Basically, the latest /etc/locale.gen file should have
all the possible locales--uncomment the ones you want then run
locale-gen.  

After that, you might or might not get the unable to set locale error
(I've had different results on different machines--on one, upgrading to
the latest fixed it, on another, it didn't) but they seem to be
harmless.  That is, I can use Japanese without problem, despite those
messages.
