This is caused by the non-default locale. The ebuild needs to unset LC_ALL.

Works for me.  
  
src_compile() {  
        unset LC_ALL  
        unset LANG 
        nant -D:install.prefix=/usr || die  
}  
 

Yes, works for me as well (original submitter). Could we please see this in the
ebuild.

Fixed (with effectively the same code as Norberto posted) in CVS. Marking this
FIXED, please feel free to re-open if you are still having problems after
syncing in a little while. Thanks.
