I have this kind of problem with gnome-terminal2 too, it seemed to happen when i was using a font with an incorrect charset for the one defined in my locale.
For example, my whole desktop is using the locale fr_FR.ISO-8859-1, if i start gnome-terminal2 this way : $ LC_ALL=ja_JP.eucJP gnome-terminal & and having a common font, it causes the kind of problems you describes (especially with french special chars like Ã, Ã and so on. The problem was "solved" by setting all my desktop in fr_FR.UTF-8. But only partially solved only : now french special chars can't no longer be seen... while i'm using a (good) unicode font (-efont-fixed-*-10646-1 or any msttcorefont)... in fact the gnome-terminal doesn't seem to understand the multibytes chars and display them bad, but I no longer have the problem you describe.
