Hi Everyone,

I'm seeing some self-tests failures building the 2.25 release tarball on OS X. I'm seeing it on the old PowerMac with OS X 10.5, and a modern Intel Mac with OS X 10.9. PowerMac failures are not too surprising, but the modern Mac should probably pass its self tests.

Setting LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 and LANG=en_US.UTF-8 did not help. (I've seen sed and awk produce unusual results when they are not set).
