> Message Catalog System: corrupt file.

Your system's NLS message catalog is bad or not installed.

1. Check $LANG, it should be unset or set to "C" (or set to "Pig")

2. Check /usr/share/nls/C/libc.cat
-r--r--r--  1 bin  bin  4182 Aug 15 10:41 libc.cat

   This file gets built with the stuff in /usr/src/lib/libc

3. Make sure you are not using an NFS mounted /usr/share from different
   endian machine!  Ever since NLS dropped a file with byte-ordering
   dependancies into /usr/share according to hier(7) has been corrupted.
   I work around it by NFS mounting /usr/share and /usr/share/nls from
   separate areas.
