Well, no one else seemed to have a better idea so I tried something. I
set LC_ALL in make.conf. Guess what, it installed without error with
that set. During the install, the install guide and I'm pretty sure
someone on this list said it shouldn't be set because it can override
other settings. It seems tho, this one package wants it set for some
reason.
So, if anyone runs up on this problem, set LC_ALL in make.conf, at least
while this one package is being emerged anyway.
Hope this helps someone else one day.
