svn: error: cannot set LC_ALL locale

Hi all,
I downloaded http://subversion.tigris.org/tarballs/subversion-1.1.3.tar.gz
compiled it via
$ sh configure --with-berkeley-db=$bdb --with-neon=$neon --enable-all-static
$ make
and copied the binaries svn, svnserve and svnadmin to /home/svn/bin/svn-1.1.3

On
$ /home/svn/bin/svn-1.1.2/svn list file:///home/svn/repos/demo/
I get:
svn: error: cannot set LC_ALL locale
svn: error: environment variable LANG is de_DE@euro
svn: error: please check that your locale name is correct

I tried
export LANG=de_DE@euro
export LANG=utf8
export LANG=de_DE
export LANG=de_DE.ISO-8859-15
export LANG=de_DE@ISO-8859-15
with no success.

OS is some Linux (how do I tell which flavour?) and

$ ls -l /usr/share/i18n/locales/de_DE@euro
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1784 Mai 11 2001 /usr/share/i18n/locales/de_DE@euro

Who can help?

Greetings,
        M
