Comment:
This is really a bug in Leopard. UTF-8 doesn't look like a valid value for
the LANG environment variable. It should be something of the form
{{{language[_territory][.codeset]}}}, where UTF-8 is only the ''codeset''
part.
As you can see from the traceback, it isn't Django that's having the
problem here. It's Python's standard locale library.
We can probably put a workaround into Django, but you should also file a
bug with Apple, please, so that they fix this. It's just dumb.
