New submission from albertjan:
This is almost identical to: http://bugs.python.org/issue854511
However, tis602, which is mentioned in the orginal bug report, is not an alias
to cp874. Therefore, I propose the following:
import encodings
aliases = encodings.aliases.aliases
more_aliases

Hi,
I found this report that includes your name:

Thanks.
Something is wrong with your request, though:
* we already have an iso8859_11 code, so aliasing it to some
other name is not possible

Hi,
Thanks for your replies. Eryksun (nice to meet you here too!), your function
seems very useful, thank you very much. I had indeed already switched to your
'getrawlocale' approach.
Perhaps off-topic (because I have never seen this happen in Windows
New submission from albertjan:
getlocale() is supposed to (?) return a locale two-tuple in a platform-specific
notation. However, in *Windows* 7 64, with Python 3.4, 3.3 and 2.7 a
*unix-like*, abbreviated, lang_territory notation is used for french, german,
portuguese, spanish. In other words
albertjan added the comment:
I agree that the two issues are related, but I don't see how they could be
duplicates. But maybe that's because I do not know the underlying code.
issue 10466 is mostly about getdefaultlocale() and whether it's desirable or
not that its return value is always uniq
