I'm -1 on taking this approach this late in the release process.
You are adding a completely new codec, which hasn't received enough
testing. Furthermore, the concept of relying on OS defined codecs is
not in line with our concept of shipping codecs that work on all
platforms, not just the OS where they happen to be available via
some system libraries (and then completely outside of our control).
For 3.0, please just add aliases to the existing codecs and a
note that this is just a work-around to be able to build Python
on Mac OS X.
I see. I've uploaded a patch for option 1 in issue #1276.
Great ! Thanks.
For 3.1, we'll then have to add proper codecs for the missing
encodings, hopefully reusing the existing CJK mapping tables.
I already have a patch that is implemented just as you describe. :)
Perfect :-)
