Although I have not tried the exact method described there I'll question 
wether itn't a small mistake. I have simply include support for Japanese (I 
guess it's the same Chinese) when I installed Fedora.
Running
LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 XMODIFIERS=@im=htt kedit
does then not work, but
LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8 XMODIFIERS=@im=htt kedit
does.
So the question is; shouldn't you set LC_CTYPE (or LC_ALL) rather than LANG. 
Another problem with changing LANG is that in some programs the menus also 
change. If you're not a native you might not want that.
