The strange thing here is that we should be requesting the empty string locale 
"" which according to http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/locale/locale/locale/ 
is "guaranteed to exist on all implementations". So I don't see how we can 
have this exception unless the C++ runtime is broken.

Since you are using GCC 4.9 from MacPorts you should make sure that you are 
linking against compatible C++ and C libraries. You probably cannot use those 
that come with OS X.
