At least two packages are broken with a similar output "invalid multibyte sequence" (see the next comment for detail): app-emacs/liece-1.4.10 and sys-apps/util-linux-2.11z-r6 The only reference I found in google is to possible problem with gettext, which is sys-devel/gettext-0.11.5-r1 in my case.

I am not sure if this bug is more general than #26337 and thus one duplicates another.

does it do better with gettext-0.12.1?
try latest stable of everything
