Hello!

I tried to set my FreeBSD box to using unicode by setting the following locale:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ 0 $ locale
LANG=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

This should exist according to "locale -a":
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ 0 $ locale -a | grep en_GB.UTF-8
en_GB.UTF-8
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ 0 $ ls /usr/share/locale/en_GB.UTF-8/
LC_COLLATE  LC_CTYPE    LC_MESSAGES LC_MONETARY LC_NUMERIC  LC_TIME

However Perl, rxvt-unicode and others complain, that it does not:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ 0 $ perl -e 'print "Hello world!\n"'
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
        LC_ALL = (unset),
        LANG = "en_GB.UTF-8"
    are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
Hello world!
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ 0 $ urxvt -h
urxvt: default locale unavailable, check LC_* and LANG variables. Continuing.
rxvt-unicode (urxvt) v5.7 - released: 2005-07-13
...

What's wrong here?

Thanks for any hints!
