Please re-read my post. NLS_LANG tells Oracle what the OS characterset is. It's not the other way around, you do not specify the database characterset through NLS_LANG.
You can't have two OS charactersets at the same time, can you?
Please review Note 158577.1 on metalink. It explains NLS_LANG very well.
