I compiled Gimp 1.1.29 under Solaris 2.6 without the included gettext
(I have GNU gettext 0.10.35 installed in my path, and "configure" is
happy with it). I had never tried to set LANG=fr under Solaris, so I
just tried to see if I had any problems. Well, I got the answer in
less than 2 seconds...
csh> setenv LANG fr
csh> gimp

It crashed before opening any windows. I tried "truss" to see the list
of system calls that are done before crashing, and I see that it crashes
soon after opening and mmap'ing ".../lib/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/gimp.mo".
So it does open the file, but it crashes immediately afterwards.
