Set your LC_ALL to "C" before starting IC. For example:

	$ export LC_ALL=C; bin/interchange -restart

	or 

	% setenv LC_ALL C; bin/interchange -restart

Or if you have a catalog.cfg setup that works for you, put it back
that way and then put in catalog.cfg as well:

	ScratchDefault  mv_locale de_DE
