Initial Comment:
>>> print "Mayıs".upper()
>>> MAYıS
>>> import locale
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL,'Turkish_Turkey.1254')
>>> print "Mayıs".upper()
>>> MAYıS
>>> print "ğüşiöçı".upper()
>>> ğüşIöçı
MAYıS should be MAYIS
ğüşIöçı should be ĞÜŞİÖÇI
but
>>> "Mayıs".upper()
>>> "MAYIS"
is right

The behaviour of python in this area is confusing. See a
session with my Spanish keyboard:
>>> print "á"
á
>>> print len("á")
2
>>> print "á".upper()
á
>>> str("á")
'\xc3\xa1'
>>> print u"á"
á
>>> print len(u"á")
1
>>> print u"á".upper()
Á
>>> str(u"á")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
__builtin__.UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode
character u'\xe1' in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)
I guess this is what is happening to the reporter.
This violates the least surprising behavior principle in so
many different ways that it hurts. Can anybody make sense of it?
