You need to set two environment variables: LC_ALL and LANG.
I use this in my .profile (I use bash as my login shell):
export LC_ALL=C
export LANG=en_US
If you can translate that to [t]csh, the problem should go away when
you log in again (or restart terminal, or whatever). The tcsh fix
is documented in a few OSX-type places, but I don't have any URLs
offhand.
HTH,
