Antoine Pitrou added the comment: As to whether we will add a workaround for this in Python:
- Python follows POSIX correctly here, and no issue was reported in mainstream OSes such as Linux, OS X or the *BSDs - this only exists in 2.7, which is in extended maintenance mode (it's the last of the 2.x series, and will probably stopped being maintained in a few years); Python 3.x doesn't have this issue - IllumOS is a rather niche OS that none of us is using, so adding a system-specific workaround doesn't sound very compelling Thanks for reporting, though. It's good to be reminded that locales and ctype.h are a rather lousy design :-) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20049> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
