R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: Ah, I can tell you exactly why that is, then. I noticed this in pythonrun.c while grepping the source:
#ifdef HAVE_SETLOCALE /* Set up the LC_CTYPE locale, so we can obtain the locale's charset without having to switch locales. */ setlocale(LC_CTYPE, ""); #endif SVN blames Martin in r56922, so this case is assigned appropriately. Perhaps changing only LC_CTYPE is safe? I must admit to ignorance as to what all the LC variables mean/control. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6203> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
