Replacing XLC_LOCALE fixed it for me. I remembered I had it working previously (with a slightly different, yet working XLC_LOCALE, too), but this file tends to get replaced when new versions of I install new versions of libX11, and I finally forgot about needing to fix this. Anyway, perhaps this should be pushed as an upstream fix, what do you think? Best regards, -- [a]
