There was an upgrade to glibmm a couple of days ago.  Is your system fully up-to-date?

pretty sure you don't have locale generated in the right way. see locale wiki

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

I don't really understand what I did but the problem is solved. The best thing I can think of is I had a typo in rc.conf or locale.gen. Or maybe it as something to do with the localization daemon.
