The default prefix changed after 0.53.  Unless you altered configure's 
default, you installed into /usr/local, and you need to edit 
/usr/local/etc/locales.conf.  You can double check which file is being 
consulted with TDSDUMPCONFIG.  

We never issued a "0.61-5" release; we had a 0.61.x and a month ago issued 
0.62.1.
