Thanks for taking the time to respond.  Yes, I got the same type of errors you received, in addition to the:
> "bin/bash"open("/usr/share/locale/en_US.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo",O_RDONLY)
I listed previously. 

It appears there is something quirky going on with locale, and apparently this has been going on for years. 

I gave up and just re-installed; which I venture to guess is what everyone else does. 
Sad that you can't rely on Fedora recovery tools... maybe that is why they
don't even bother to put it on the Workstation live ISO.

In any event, I opened up a bugzilla.

I have no further insight to offer.  Like you, I haven't used this for
a long time, and the last time I did, it worked without issues.  Did
strace give an actual error when you ran the command? Did you find a
workaround?  Is there anything more relevant in the logs?
