xboard clock display missing

The clock is not displayed properly. Instead of numbers, I get squares and instead of the ":", I get a strange oversized "+". I tried to search for this problem with google, but I coulnd't find anything I considered useful. I suspect that maybe a character set is missing and some guy seemed to have had a similar problem, installed xorg-fonts-dpi* and fixed it, but I have that already and it is not working. Maybe it is a missing dependency in the xboard package, maybe a missing locale, in the xboard.debug file I got the following output:

locale = LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF-8;LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8;LC_COLLATE=C;LC_MONETARY=en_US.UTF-8;LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8;LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8;LC_NAME=en_US.UTF-8;LC_ADDRESS=en_US.UTF-8;LC_TELEPHONE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8;LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_US.UTF-8

But I hope I don't have to enable all those in my /etc/locale.gen to make it work properly, does anyone know this problem?
