How?  Submiting a job that does echo $LANG is the only way I'd trust.
Environment variables such as LANG are not necessarily the same for
all processes on a node.  You need to find out what it is set to for
processes started by Grid Engine.

Most likely your batch jobs are not run in a login shell so don't get
LANG set and default to the 'C' locale.  I'd try explicitly
setting(and exporting) LANG in your job script to fix it.  Possibly
check the values of the various LC_* variables as well.

cat and cp don't (normally) worry about character encoding at all they
just move bytes around.  These are interpreted when you view them
later.
