 Yes, this bug should be more frequent than before, in fact. r311308
 actually removed a few patches added in r267504 which prevented this
 issue from happening. I'm not 100% sure they were the right fix, though.
 
 The problem hasn't been completely solved upstream either ([1] is still
 open).
 
 As [2] explains, the problem is that we build gcc (both in base and
 ports) without passing --clocale=gnu to it, so when boost calls
 std::locale("") it will fail if LC_ALL is set to anything but "POSIX" or
 "C".
