Terry J. Reedy tjre...@udel.edu added the comment:
The docs say that the locale arg should be None, tuple, or string, so I take
that to mean that Unicode should be OK for 2.x, and that would help porting to
3.x. If bytes are rejected in 3.x, there should be TypeError raised, not
ValueError,

FWIW the type() is gone in Py3, now it is:
if locale and not isinstance(locale, _builtin_str):
where from builtins import str as _builtin_str
(http://svn.python.org/view/python/branches/py3k/Lib/locale.py?view=markup)
However Py3.0 now
