Figured that part out; was the result of some bad proxy settings on my part.

I did have a mystery about why $LANG is always set to en_US instead of 
en_US.UTF-8 when I login, which is causing issues.  I've already tried 
setting language in the system settings panel.

However, I just discovered that was on purpose:

/opt/kde-4.1/bin/startkde:
...
test -n "$LANG" && LANG=`basename "$LANG" ".UTF-8"`

That's not going to work very well.  It causes any terminal programs I 
start to complain about a non-existent locale (which is correct since 
en_US as $LANG is bogus).
