loadlocale.c is from glibc. It doesn't appear to be dev-util/dialog that is failing. Is there a reproducer for toolchain@ outside of systemrescuecd? Reproduced it locally after downloading systemrescuecd .iso.
./usb_inst.sh is running statically linked 'dialog' binary:
$ file /var/tmp/usb_inst.tmp/dialog
/var/tmp/usb_inst.tmp/dialog: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (GNU/Linux), statically linked, stripped
and attempts to load locale data from host. If libc versions don't match (x86 vs amd64) loading locale-archive will not succeed.
As a workaround I suggest forcing C locale as:
LANG=C ./usb_inst.sh
Given that ./usb_inst.sh does not have localisation support it could as well contain
LANG=C
export LANG
to sanitize the environment.
We can look at better error handling on glibc side but it won't fix static binary as it already embeds old libc.
Looks like this dialog binary was built with gcc-4.4.4-r1 (added in Gentoo in 2011). Don't know which glibc version is that. Perhaps something around 2.12.

I've tried reporting this upstream but their official support channel seem to be the forum, and it doesn't allow registering new accounts. I've also tried contacting the maintainer via sf mail but with no response so far. If someone's got account on the Forums, I'd appreciate proxying this bug.
