According to its man page, sed(1) should take LANG and LC_* environment variables into account.
On the other hand, "do shell script" defaults to the C locale.
So, let's try (Lion here) :
set myText to "This 😝😝😝 is 😣😷😝 an 😣😷 experiment.😝"
set cmd to "LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 sed 's/😝😝*//g' <<< " & quoted form of myText
do shell script cmd
--> "This is 😣😷 an 😣😷 experiment."
The man page thus seems to tell the truth.
As far as awk(1) is concerned, its man page is silent about such matters.
And there must be a good reason:
set myText to "😝😝😝"
set cmd to "LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 awk '{print length($0)}' <<< " & quoted form of myText
do shell script cmd
--> "12"
