Comment:
Using only `locale.getpreferredencoding()` would work on windows,
but not on Linux, where setting the `locale` doesn't seem to affect it
(e.g. after a `locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'French')`,
my `locale.getpreferredencoding()` was still 'UTF-8', whereas
`locale.getlocale(locale.LC_TIME)[1]` gave 'ISO8859-1', which was
consistent with the encoding used by `strftime`).
So I guess some platform dependent code is in order here...
