An attempt to set a locale manually as follows from the command line works and allows Gnucash to start up:

Little-Net:Testing minfrin$ LC_ALL=C Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash
Application Path /Applications/Testing/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash-bin
Preference migration has finished

An attempt to set the locale manually directly on the Gnucash-bin binary causes the binary to crash as before, and log the following to the console:

Little-Net:Testing minfrin$ Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash
Application Path /Applications/Testing/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash-bin

(process:30185): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
	Using the fallback 'C' locale.
Backtrace:

I tried to raise this as a bug in bugzilla, but the "forgot password" mechanism is currently broken, it goes through the complete process of allowing you to change your password, confirms that your password has been changed successfully, and when you try and log in with your new password, tells you your username or password is incorrect.
