This looks like the problem: you have specified that you
want to use en_US as your locale, but you don't have that
locale installed.
You should have a directory in /usr/share/locale for every
locale you want available on your system. The source files
for the locales should be in /usr/share/i18n/locales and
/usr/share/i18n/charsets. That is, you should have all of
the following:
/usr/share/i18n/locales/en_US
/usr/share/i18n/charsets/ISO8859-1
/usr/share/i18n/charsets/UTF-8
/usr/share/locale/en_US.ISO8859-1
/usr/share/locale/en_US.UTF-8
If you are missing the last two, rerunning locale-gen should
create them. If you're missing any of the first three, then
you will probably need to emerge -1 glibc to get everything
back.
