David Edelsohn added the comment:
The problem is Lib/test/regrtest.py.
_lc = [getattr(locale, lc) for lc in dir(locale) if lc.startswith('LC_')]
The list of locales that start with 'LC_' includes LC_ALL. On AIX, at least,
setlocal("LC_ALL",NULL) returns a string with the locales for each locale
category. Lib/locale.py for getlocale() specifically says:
"category may be one of the LC_* value except LC_ALL."
The following patch fixes the AIX testing problem.
