That should not matter as long as

print(os.environ.get("PYTHONIOENCODING"))

prints

UTF-8

If you do get the correct PYTHONIOENCODING you should be able to replace the 
corresponding SetEnv with

SetEnv LANG en_US.UTF-8

or similar. If you don't get the expected value the SetEnv is probably not 
in the right place. In my experiments I put it into

/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf 

in an apache installation I think I have not tinkered with before ;)

While looking around in the apache configuration I also found the file
/etc/apache2/envvars. Here's an excerpt:

## The locale used by some modules like mod_dav
export LANG=C
## Uncomment the following line to use the system default locale instead:
#. /etc/default/locale

export LANG

If you uncomment the line

. /etc/default/locale

and replace 

SetEnv LANG en_US.UTF-8

with 

PassEnv LANG

you should get a similar effect assuming your system defaults to UTF-8.
