OK. Just for the records and for future reference of other users:
1) Recompiled perl to 5.8.0
2) Recompiled mod_perl, mod_ssl, apache (used
http://www.delouw.ch/linux/Apache-Compile-HOWTO/html/index.html as a
guide);
3) Downloaded a bunch of modules from CPAN;
4) Rebuilt RT (used RT 3.0.5pre3);
5) Restarted webserver

and voilà! My RT now supports international characters!

Thanks for everybody who helped me.

Now running:
RedHat 7.3, Perl 5.8.0, Apache/1.3.28 (Unix) PHP/4.3.1 mod_gzip/1.3.26.1a
mod_perl/1.28 mod_ssl/2.8.15 on a Duron 1GHz w/ 512mb memory
