umm, let's try some locale configuration:
----------------------- script start -----------------------------
from locale import setlocale, getlocale, LC_ALL
import sys
print sys.platform
for l in (
'en_US',
'en_US.ASCII',
'en_US.US-ASCII',
'en_US.latin-1',
'en_US.ISO-8859-1',
'en_US.ISO-8859-2',
'en_US.UTF-8',
'el_GR.ISO-8859-1',
'el_GR.ISO-8859-2',
'el_GR.ISO-8859-5',
'el_GR.ISO-8859-7',
'el_GR.ISO-2022',
'el_GR.EUC-JP',
'ja_JP.UTF-8',
'ja_JP.EUC-JP',
'ja_JP.ISO-2022',
'ja_JP.ISO-2022-JP',
'ja_JP.ISO-2022-JP-1',
'ja_JP.AJEC',
'ja_JP.PCK',
'ja_JP.ujis',
'ja_JP.Shift_JIS',
'ja_JP.x-sjis',
'ja_JP.SJIS',
'ja_JP.sjis',
):
setlocale(LC_ALL, l)
print '%-24s'% l, getlocale()
----------------------- script end -----------------------------
result on RHL6.2(En)
----------------------- result -----------------------------

Wow, maybe we could say something like that?:
> 1) adopting new environment value
- platform-neutral: no different behaviour on different platform
- could set an encoding which mismatches with C's locale behaviour
> 2) using locale.getlocale()[1]
- better accordance of locale setting and encoding setting
- may affect on the behaviour of other components which depends on C's locale
- the supported encodings are limited to the available ones on the platform
- eliminate irregular combination of locale(lang+territory) + encoding
