Well, knowing the exact herror message would help; my guess
is that the error mssage you are getting is indicating that
the value of your "LANG" environment variable is a locale not
supported by your C library (or maybe not supported by your
Xlib.) 

This affects all apps ... GTK+ just makes more noise about it than
most other applications.
