SQL*Plus and DBMS_OUTPUT won't display extended charset?

Oracle 8.1.7.2.0
HP/UX 11.0
DB was converted from USASCII7 to UTF8
NLS_CHARACTERSET and NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET are both "UTF8" in DB. "export NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8" in client environment (Korn shell).

In SVRMGRL on the DB server, when I SELECT CHR(200) FROM DUAL, I get the character displayed properly (Latin capital "E" with grave accent). In SQL*Plus, however, the character does not appear. Also, when I use DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE to dump CHR(200) to the screen in either Server Manager or SQL*Plus, nothing shows up.

Anyone know what's going on here?

TIA!
