In case someone is having similar problems with garbled characters, the solution turned out to be easy for me at least, once I finally found out what to change: in /etc/sysconfig/i18n I changed LANG="sv_SE.UTF-8" to just sv_SE. This also automagically changed all the LC_* env vars to sv_SE, and so far everything seems to be back to normal, knock on wood.
What's strange is that this is exactly what I did on the 7.3 -> 8.0 upgraded system, but then it didn't help, so I ignored the possibility for the fresh install. Oh well, I'm happy now.
