Installation fails on Aur packages

Question

Hello everyone I installed arch linux and packages from aur plenty of times. But this time I am about to give up
I installed Compiz as standalone, plank, chromium and everything works like a charm But when I try to install some packages from Aur I'm getting  errors like I have never seen.
These errors I get, I get them when compiling. And I thought I need dependencies to compile from aur. Because nobody get that errors (most of them anyways googled them:))
First I want to start with libdesktop-agnostic :
^
Waf: Leaving directory `/home/thedeli/Downloads/libdesktop-agnostic-git/src/libdesktop-agnostic/build'

This thread may be related, though the error message is completely different which makes me doubt it.  Of course the OP of this thread does use yaourt.
thedeli, if you'd like to explore why this is needed, I'd suggest trying to install aur packages with and without yaourt (just use makepkge) to see if the problem is specific to yaourt or more general and to see wheather you get error messages like on that other thread when you use makepkg directly.
I tried both /w and /wo yaourt. I didn't try LC_ALL=C with makepkg. I will try that with Dockbarx-xfce4-plugin. I write about that in here...
AAnnnnnddd voila putting LC_ALL=C at the beginning solves my compile problem
