 English, where the latter was the "Primary" language. Starting Inkscape
 from the Application folder, it crashes as reported above and shows the
 "internal error" dialog box in German. After removing the secondary
 language, Inkscape starts without problems.

 I can confirm that setting `export LANG=en_US` and `export LC_ALL=$LANG`
 makes inkscape less crashy for me; however, it's not a viable solution for
 me (and surely others) as I need UTF8.
