I don't know about FreeBSD. But from my experience this points to the fact that the "$LANG" or "$LC_*"-variables are not defined in the environment or have a setting, that the localization functions do not recognize. Look, whether you have a "man locale". I always set "LC_ALL=C; export LC_ALL" in shell scripts, for example, because this most of the time gives the "expected" results.
