Why you don't just use xterm -fn '-*-iso8859-15' instead of xterm
or just add this is your ~/.Xdefaults:

*VT100.font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso8859-15

So that each xterm will use iso8859-15 font.

There is no much difference betwen Latin1 and Latin9, (besides the euro
symbol, only the vulgar fractions are replaced (with OE, oe, Y with
diaeresis) and broken bar by S with caron, diaeresis replaced by s
with caron, acute accent replaced by Z with caron, and cedilla replaced by
z with caron). So if you don't make use of the acute accent, you will
not notice any change between Latin1 and Latin9.
