etc.

I googled stray '\202' in program and found a site indicating that this error crops up when the file in question isn't ascii. Sure enough, less says the file /usr/bin/locale is binary. What gives?

For some reason this line in the C++ library's ostream.tcc file:

#include <locale>

is pulling in /usr/bin/locale (an executable) instead of the C++ header /usr/include/c++/4.0.0/locale (a C++ header file).

You can first curse the C++ gods for a) deciding that C++ headers don't deserve extensions and b) naming them the same as binaries.

Then when you're done with that you can look at your -I flags (include search paths) and figure out why you're telling gcc to look in /usr/bin for headers, when it never, ever should.

Your fundamental misapprehension is that using gcc from the command line is simpler than using Xcode. You will discover that, as hard as it is to learn to drive a car, more people can do it than can build an engine from parts.
