Problem at startup on linux 64

[Collette Yann]

Hello,

I don't know if it's a linux 64 specific bug, but since today, I am not 
able to start scilab anymore. The main windows shows up but scilab 
immediately hangs after that.
I have launched a debug session and here is the result:

the sci_getcwd problematic code:

int C2F(sci_getcwd)(char *fname,unsigned long fname_len)
{
        int ierr = 0;
        int lpath = 0;
        char *path = NULL;

        Rhs = Max(Rhs,0);

        CheckRhs(0,0);
        CheckLhs(0,1);

        scigetcwd(&path,&lpath,&ierr);

        if (ierr)
        {
                Scierror(998,_("%s: An error occurred.\n"), fname);
                return 0;
        }
        else
        {
                char szTemp[bsiz];
                char* utfPath = localeToUTF(path, szTemp);

                int n1 = 1;
                int m1 = (int)strlen(utfPath);        <------------------


So, this is certainly related to the recent localisation changes.
