Mac OS X 10.5

I upgraded from Tiger to Leopard, and GDC seems to be working fine. I've found 
two problems that don't seem to be related to GDC, but I don't know where to ask.

First, I can't build powerpc-apple-darwin9.0.0-gdc basically because I can't get 
GCC 4.0.x and 4.1.x to compile. With 4.1.2, I get:

gcc -c   -g -O2  -DIN_GCC -DCROSS_COMPILE  -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings 
-Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -pedantic -Wno-long-long

It's not a GDC problem, as I also tried to compile GCC without GDC and got the 
same error. I also got the same with GCC 4.0.4. GCC 4.2.2 builds, but GDC 
doesn't support it.

The other problem is more like a small annoyance:

$ gdmd
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
	LC_ALL = (unset),
	LANG = "UTF-8"
     are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
gdc (GCC) 4.1.2 20070214 ( gdc 0.24, using dmd 1.021)
...

Every time I run gdmd I get those horrible first 6 lines, and I have no idea how 
to set up my system so that LANG = "es_EC.UTF-8" and that it shows up when I run 
"locale -a".

Sorry, but I had to get it out of my chest, even if I know those are not really 
issues with GDC. However, if anybody has a clue of how to solve them, I'd really 
appreciate it.
