[Xymon] Solaris 10 SPARC Xymon 4.3.8 build problem

No, don't worry, that's immaterial. It works on some of my SPARC boxes
and not others, and it does not work on the x86 boxes I've tried. I'm
trying to see if I can narrow this down to a patch level somehow.
Looks like the package that owns /usr/bin/tr is SUNWcsu. Just to take
uname out of the equation, I've been just echo-ing "SunOS" to the tr
command, which is what uname -s produces. The results are still a bit
all over the map.

Apparently, it works if $LANG=C or $LANG is null, and it explodes if
$LANG=en_US.UTF-8. Fun times?
