I've only *ever* seen it on fresh installs. An "emerge -e @world" to
propagate CFLAGS is usually an early step; I like to do it before I
install much more than 'screen' and 'vim'.

Chances are, it's some smaller thing, like getting locale settings in
place before emerging glibc or some fs tools, but I haven't tried
tracking it down more deeply.

Have you tried locale-gen and env-update ?

I did when I saw it, and it didn't clear the error.

I did not have any /etc/env.d/02locale file, so I created
one with LANG="en_GB.UTF-8" in it, but I still get the same
error. I tried en_US.UTF-8 or en_EN.UTF-8 with the same
results. I really do not understand what ca-certificates
needs to get it installed...

Bingo, this solved my problem! I did locale-gen but I forgot
to run "env-update && source /etc/profile". I always thought
log-off/log-in updates enviromnent too. It is actually true,
but for user, not system-wide...
