STINNER Victor added the comment:
I don't see the benefit of supporting Unicode strings for setlocale()
arguments: locale name are always encodable to ASCII, so loc.decode('ascii') is
enough to workaround the issue.
But well, I think it's ok if it doesn't make the code much more complex ;-)
I wrote a patch, what do you think? Is it worth it? ;-)
