R. David Murray added the comment:

I don't think this is "intentional", but instead is a consequence of how things 
used to work before we started to try to handle empty/C locale better.  It 
applies to python3 as well.  Since we only started trying to handle this in 
python3, I'm not sure that it can be fixed in python2.
