I too is having the same problem with locale-gen, after having installed 
the shr-utf8*-packages.
The locale-gen is run by shr-utf8.postinst but it failes with the same 
message as mentioned above.

I modified /usr/sbin/locale-gen and added '-v' to to parameterlist for 
'localedef' and re-ran it manually.

I'm running the latest (since tonight) 'shr-unstable' (built at home).

In my shr-unstable/conf/local.conf I have the following lines:
GLIBC_GENERATE_LOCALES = "en_US.UTF-8"
#ENABLE_BINARY_LOCALE_GENERATION = "0"

Today I sent a SMS using swedish characters, using the newly installed 
swedish-illume-keyboard. Entering the åäö was no problem, nor was 
sending it. When I received a reply containing åäö the openmoko-messages 
crashed due to an alignment trap, and does so every time I try to start 
openmoko-messages.

(I would like to believe it's because Apple iPhones are evil, but I cant...)

Dont even know if the locale-stuff and problems with openmoko-messages 
is releated.

I'm trying to find out how to debug this stuff, and I would gladly 
report any findings/fixes, if I just figure out how/what...
