[horde] Translations not working on Solaris

>> Horde 3.3.4, IMP 4.3.4, Solaris 10, Sun WebStack 1.5 (Apache 2.2, PHP 5.2)
>>
>> Since we upgraded our Horde/IMP installation and moved to new  
>> servers (from RH Linux to Solaris), we have been unable to get  
>> translations working. If I change my preferred language via  
>> options, only the Help and the occasional bit of text (eg in date  
>> strings) gets displayed in the new language; the rest of the  
>> interface stays in english. We have all the relevant locale files  
>> installed.
>>
>> The langtest.php example script included in the TRANSLATIONS doc  
>> works fine from both the command line and via web.
>>
>> I have tried rebuilding the translations for Solaris using  
>> translation.php as noted in the TRANSLATIONS doc. We had to make  
>> changes to translation.php to make it pick up the right GNU gettext  
>> utilities (eg "ggettext" instead of "gettext", etc). It now runs  
>> successfully except for an error message displayed right after it  
>> finishes building the .mo files for Horde:
>>
>> Warning: an error has occured:
>> 2052 translated messages.
>>
>> This error message is also accompanied by a core dump. No PHP  
>> errors appear in the apache error log. The script continues on with  
>> the other modules we have installed (ingo, imp, turba) and finishes  
>> successfully.

>> Anyone have any ideas as to what's going wrong? Thanks in advance ...

The mapping is done in config/nls.php.
