 Very interesting!
 
 On our system, LANG is already set to "C" due to some other application
 environment restrictions. But I noticed that LC_ALL was unset.
 
 # locale
 LANG=C
 LC_COLLATE="C"
 LC_CTYPE="C"
 LC_MONETARY="C"
 LC_NUMERIC="C"
 LC_TIME="C"
 LC_MESSAGES="C"
 LC_ALL=
 
 After Setting LC_ALL to "C", gcc seems happy but I get the following
 problem...

 /usr/pkg/bin/bmake  -DPKG_PRESERVE

 Stop.

 Also, Tobias Nygren has made a suggestion regarding this problem on the
 tech-pkg mailing list. Perhaps there is something there as well, however
 I have verified that `bmake show-depends' does not show any dependencies
 for bootstrap-mk-files:
