I18N vs OpenOffice3

[Paul Goyette <paul%whooppee.com@localhost>]

I must confess up front that I never really understood the I18N stuff, and 
really don't have much clue about locales.

I recently upgraded to OpenOffice3-3.1.1nb40 (built from pkgsrc), and when I 
attempt to run it, it complains thusly:

        {128} soffice
        I18N: Operating system doesn't support locale "en_US"
        {129}

If run from an active Xterm session, it briefly attempts to display a window 
and quickly exits.

If run from my .fvwm2rc file, the above error message ends up in my 
.xsession-errors file (as expected).  However, the window (which is the size 
needed for ooo to display its "splash" screen) never goes away, and the 
process is in a tight cpu loop.  (And even if I "destroy" the window, the 
looping process remains.)

Does anyone have a clue on how to make this work?  (Other than going back to 
the previous revision 3.1.1nb30 ...)
