Well, that wouldn't be different if you had set the locale in your
prompt. In short, ``u'a' in string.letters`` can never work with any
string.letters except the default, English-only one, and therefore is wrong.

Changing the locale changes string.letters -- that is expected behavior.

New submission from Roger Upole [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
The problem seems to stem from this line in IOBinding.py:
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_CTYPE, )
From the command prompt:
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb 21 2008, 13:11:45) [MSC v.1310 32 bit
(Intel)] on

Why do you think string.letters gets corrupted? AFAICT, it's still correct.
