In Dapper (irssi 0.8.10-1ubuntu1), the option has been changed to term_charset, and it appears to be set based on the properties of the terminal that started it.

(with LANG=en_US.UTF-8)
10:46 [lookandfeel]
10:46 term_charset = UTF-8

(with LANG=en_US.ISO8859-1, even though I don't have that locale set up on my machine)
10:48 [lookandfeel]
10:48 term_charset = ANSI_X3.4-1968

The default terminal charset is UTF-8, and irssi will now follow that. This bug appears to be resolved; closing.
