There was a slight change in stubdom makefile from 3.3 to 3.3.1, in order to use non-localised gcc output: GCC_INSTALL = $(shell LANG=C gcc -print-search-dirs | sed -n -e 's/install: \(.*\)/\1/p')

This is a joke, right ?  The purpose of  gcc -print-search-dirs
is to provide information to other programs.  Its output should not be
localised.

If it is, then that is a bug in your compiler.  As a workaround, set
whatever environment variables are necessary to make it not be so
stupid.
Well, that's not really new apparently:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14351

My point here is not to discuss if this is a bug or not, rather than the workaround used in xen makefile is not enough for everyone out there.
