There are two ways to set the variable and I also found that
sometimes, one of them doesn't work. Here is what should
work:
import os
os.environ['LANG'] = 'ja_JP.ujis'
os.putenv ('LANG', 'ja_JP.ujis')
I *guess* the cause is that the env variable is exported to child
processes in one case and not in the other.
