STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment:

The initial problem (":" in the LANGUAGE variable) was fixed in an independent 
(?) issue (#1166938) by r39572.

If I understood correctly, locale.getdefaultlocale() is supposed to give the 
locale settings that we will be active after the first call to 
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, ''). In this case, LANGUAGE should be ignored 
because it has no effect on the active locale. The variable is specific to the 
gettext library, it is not used by the locale machinery.

About remove-support-for-LANGUAGE--in-locale.patch: you should also update the 
documentation.
